Joseph Eldridge Managing Director and CEO

As a city transforms itself into a dynamic talent hub of knowledge, ideas, innovation and creativity, a global competitive workforce and talent will be instrumental in preserving its long term success Does every employee need a global mindset? Consider, for example, the job of, say, paint shop supervisor, teachers, secretary in a globally progressive company. It is very unlikely that any of them are likely to be sent on an expatriate assignment or engage in cross - border negotiation leaving them feel unimportant. Nonetheless the company can build a global learning strategy of leadership community of its own employees. The net result would be that in a company with these type of practices, the need of hierarchical push to create a learning organisation deep within its operations will be dramatically reduced.
