Episode Description
The buzz: “We live in a global village. No country can live in isolation of others like Robinson Crusoe” (Li Keqiang). You can’t be global without being local. What does that mean for a CHRO? One of your first considerations is transactional: compliance to local customers, local and global business regulations, legal practices – with local and industry best practices. Non-compliance can put you at risk of being shut down by a country that says you didn’t do something right.The key challenge is how HR can create a brand-based experience that translates policy to practice, while keeping people at the center of globalized business with a local feel. The experts speak. Nicole Sahin, Globalization Partners: “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things” (Henry Miller). Barbara Ocain, SAP SuccessFactors: “Do what you can with what you have where you are” (Squire Bill Widener via T. Roosevelt). Join us for HR, Globalization, and Localization: More Than Meets the Eye.
