Emerging Market Talent Strategies |
Creating an effective global talent model.
Managing talent effectively in emerging markets takes
a flexible approach that can help open the flow of ideas
between markets and provide localized approaches.
In the past, global business and talent strategies
typically ran in one direction: from north to south,
from developed markets to emerging markets. But the BRIC
economies have since matured as global growth engines,
and countries in the new tier of emerging markets are
establishing themselves as growing economies and growing
sources of talent. As a result, the “north-to-south”
model is becoming outdated. Companies looking for fresh
new approaches to their most pressing talent challenges
should consider “south-to-south” or “south-to-north”
strategies, particularly as they extend their global
reach further into Asia and Africa. Eventually, the
lessons learned in BRIC countries and other emerging
markets could drive talent strategies around the world.
