Earlier this year, I shared an article on the value and benefits that come from working in multicultural teams. And because of the importance that different cultural perspectives and outlooks have for enriching our sales teams at @Gi Group Holding, I wanted to make sure I took time to recognise today as World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue & Development. Diversity of experience and thought is vital when it comes to the sales experience because our team members who plan strategy and engage with our clients and candidates in countries around the globe need to have an in-depth understanding of what makes recruitment, build out of employee teams, and establishing managerial structures succeed and thrive over the long term. Culturally diverse workplaces with open, inclusive teams can deliver a number of benefits that contribute to business sustainability: - open dialogue that fosters innovation and proactive problem-solving - higher levels of EQ/SQ that create a highly-valued customer experience - deeper insights into national and local business contexts which help make services more personalised and better fit client and candidate employment requirements. What about your organisation? What does having having a culturally diverse, inclusive team mean for your business? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. #GiGroupHolding #WorldDayforCulturalDiversity #InclusiveWorkplace #FutureWork

Another year is starting! I am very proud of my team, their hard work and what they have helped our business achieve in 2023 in Gi Group, our core business. We acquired and integrated Encore Personnel in the UK and Eupro AG in Switzerland, reinforcing our market share in these relevant markets. We restructured and stepped up our operations in Brazil and Poland, making our teams stronger and more proactive in addressing increased market complexity. And we are setting up a new era for our business in France and Romania. Then, Gi Group Holding announced an agreement with Kelly Europe to acquire their staffing business, deal completed just a few days ago. So there will be more exciting news to share about our work with the Kelly team and integration of their talented staff into our company. I held a great Global Business Meeting in Barcelona, gathering together Business Managers from 30 countries to share success stories, best practices and insights. We promoted new Gi Group Business Managers in various countries: Fluvia Pueyo in Spain, Noura Azghiri in the Netherlands, Pete Taylor (FIRP) in the UK, Laura Urueña in Argentina, Georgiana Brudaru in Romania. We issued two Global HR Trends Reports: one for the Manufacturing sector and another for Automotive, boosting our positioning in both industries. I had the opportunity to attend the Women Automotive Network Summit in Stuttgart, where I was able to witness and speak firsthand to the rapid evolution of the auto industry and I had the chance to lead an inspiring discussion on career development opportunities for women in this sector. We introduced Gi Pro, our solution focused on specialised technical professionals, in 8 countries, extending our value proposition to respond to skills shortages. I am excited to begin 2024, as I feel that our industry (recruitment and staffing) has succeeded in facing a steep learning curve head on during the past year. We now have the insights and understanding to make this new year an even better one: by leveraging technology and people power to make careers about #MoreThanWork and boost their focus on learning and personal satisfaction. Here's to a great 2024! #GiGroupHolding #NewYear #2024Vision #Staffing #Recruitment

I'm excited to share the new issue of our @Gi Group Holding More than Work newsletter. Our June issue was published yesterday and I am pleased to have had my recent article on how People Power is critical to successful recruitment and retention efforts for businesses from all industries and of all sizes featured in this edition. In my article I touch upon many issues impacting and driving how we source and engage the right (and best) talent for roles and also continue to support their career journeys so that they deliver their best results and stay with our organisations longer. Whether it be treating employee information and data with respect and care or monitoring and defining support programmes for employee career evolution, when we put people at the heart of our decision-making we build teams that consistently deliver quality work and great results. Use the link below to access my full article and also check out news from across all the businesses in Gi Group Holding. From new research delivered by INTOO and Tack TMI or new branch launches by our teams in Grafton, great things are happening in the Gi Group family. #GiGroup #MoreThanWork #PeoplePower #CareerEvolution

#Ethnocentric and #Polycentric approach in #International business.. The ethnocentric approach to recruitment means that we hire people from our parent country to fill positions all over the world. In Ethnocentric Approach, the key positions in the organization are filled with the employees of the parent country. All the managerial decisions viz. Mission, vision, objectives are formulated by the MNC’s at their headquarters, and the same is to be followed by the host company. #Advantages of Ethnocentric Approach: Better coordination between the host and the parent company. The culture of the parent company can be easily transferred to the subsidiary company, thereby infusing beliefs and practices into the foreign country. Effective control over the subsidiary. The parent company can have a close watch on the operations of the subsidiary. Better transfer of technical know-how. Effective communication between the host and the parent company. No need to have a well-developed international local labor market. #Disadvantages of Ethnocentric Approach The staff of the parent country may find it difficult to adjust in the host country due to the cultural differences. Difficulty in guiding employees living far away from the parent country. Missed out the opportunity to hire the best personnel from the host country. The cultural clashes between the executives of parent country and the staff members of the host country. The expatriates from the parent country are much expensive as compared to the employees in the host country. The government restrictions in the host country may hamper the business of the parent company. The failure rate is very high. On the other hand, polycentric approach is a hiring and staffing method in which international subsidiaries of a country find team members from the host country, rather than from the parent company's location. In the ethnocentric approach, a firm follows the same price throughout the world. A firm following a polycentric approach allows its regional managers to fix the product prices based on the circumstances in which they operate. The polycentric approach takes time to benefit the parent company fully because interactions between the parent and the subsidiary company are obligatory as the new hires do not yet understand the work culture of the parent company and need time to adjust accordingly. The parent company finds it hard to control the subsidiary in the host country due to varying leadership styles and work cultures. A lot of cooperation and communication needs to take place between the team members and the leaders with the representative of the parent company to deal with this problem. The business clients are often from the country of the parent company. Timing differences between the parent and subsidiary company's locations create odd shift timings for employees which they find hard to adapt with.

HIRING candidates from diverse industries may seem like a risk, but if done correctly, it can yield tremendous benefits. By embracing awesome talents with varied skill sets and experiences, your organization can introduce fresh perspectives and innovative approaches that can lead to increased creativity, improved problem-solving, and better decision-making. Let's all take a leap of faith and broaden our horizons. Let's not limit ourselves to candidates who fit a specific industry mold. Instead, evaluate a candidate's soft skills and motivations, rather than just where they've worked previously. By doing so, we'll be able to build a team that is more inclusive, more innovative, and ultimately more successful. As they always say, "Diversity is the key to unlocking the full potential of one's team". Recruitment is not just about filling seats. It's about creating a team that is greater than the sum of its parts. So, take a chance on diversity and watch your team thrive. #inclusivity #recruitment #evvery1matters #diversity
