Optimizing Mobility Programs

A proactive and iterative approach to mobility program design results in more effective programs that deliver across dimensions – talent management, cost effectiveness and compliance – and drive business performance.

Organizations have long used talent mobility to close skills gaps. Increasingly however, many are using talent mobility to drive business growth and provide top talent with meaningful and challenging professional opportunities. Changing market dynamics have pushed mobility program design and management from a reactive or ancillary part of Human Resources to an evolving and strategic component toward recruiting and engaging top talent.

Optimizing mobility programs requires continuous process evaluation and fine tuning against:

• Organizations’ strategic objectives and business reasons for deploying talent internationally
• Economic conditions and plans for geographic expansion
• Compliance and regulatory requirements
• Internal and industry benchmarks
• Business, demographic and workforce trends

Program design and service delivery models should strike an equal balance between flexibility and uniformity – allowing for change and customization to organizational needs while leveraging best-in-class elements to create a superior and consistent employee experience.
