Workplace Application:
Learn about the new skills and competencies that are needed to ensure you are hiring the best global talent for your organization.
Quantitative and qualitative data show that there is wide gap between the global competencies that talent has today versus what is needed by companies and organizations to succeed in an ever more connected and globalized world. This session will explore that gap, the competencies and skills for cross-border and virtual effectiveness, ways to identify global competencies and suitability for international responsibilities and assignment, and methods to build and strengthen global competencies in our employees.
