Moving employee talent key to competitive edge

The purpose of this paper is to focus on the current transformation occurring in the global workforce due to changing demands from employees and how they stay engaged in the workplace. Companies realize that appealing to talent with benefits and good pay is no longer enough, and it is time to embrace new tactics to attract and retain personnel.

CEO Brynne Herbert of MOVE Guides, a leading company in relocation management, looks at how companies have leveraged talent mobility to engage employees and the fragmented, manual processes they use that are no longer suitable for global organizations looking to streamline relocation and offer employees a simpler, more powerful approach.

The author explores how companies can use technology, like Software as a Service (SaaS), to take aim at optimizing their talent mobility programs and eradicate their inefficient and time-consuming manual operations. Using survey data, a case study from international bank Société Générale and other findings, Brynne discusses how the financial juggernaut was able to implement a cloud-based SaaS platform that updated their HR, finance and payroll and management.

Leveraging technology to attract and engage talent will be ever important in today and tomorrow’s global landscape. Therefore, the companies that move the fastest – and the most strategically – to get the right talent to the right place at the right time will have the competitive edge.
