Did you know ...
that international organizations face surprisingly similar "people" challenges?
According to a review of leadership and talent-development practices and expectations, vastly different organizations are "exceedingly similar in the overall people challenges they face."
CCL-EMEA, along with the Association for Human Resources Management in International Organizations (AHRMIO), conducted in-depth interviews with human resources professionals working in international organizations. Some of the key people challenges that emerged included:
- Developing technical professionals into effective leaders.
- Learning from effective collaboration in times of crisis.
- Making HR an effective collaborator and strategic partner to the business.
- Maintaining historical culture and mission in the face of massive organizational change and restructuring.
- Finding new ways to encourage and reward staff to change jobs, be mobile and experience new working environments.
- Making people development relevant to the real needs and expectations of staff at all levels.
The review "touches all the hot buttons of the complexity of current HR management in international organizations," writes Mary Jane Peters, executive director of AHRMIO, in her introduction to the report. It also offers thoughtful and practical solutions to address leadership and talent-development challenges and transition organizations over the coming decade.
