International Hiring and Cost Control that will Make Your CFO Happy

2020 Annual Conference & Exposition
Done poorly, international hiring can be an expensive way to expose an organization to substantial risk.

For many companies, expanding internationally has become less an option and more an imperative. With 85% of global GDP existing outside the U.S., expanding internationally is a strategic move involving new markets, revenue streams, and hopefully an increased return on investment.  But while global expansion offers you tremendous opportunities, it can also be fraught with challenges - especially if you're unaccustomed to navigating the legal, regulatory, and cultural terrain in a new country.  Come to this session to learn about how you can smooth the path to grow globally, hire internationally, control costs, and get the green light from your CFO.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand which risks represent the largest barriers to expansion into new countries.
  • Know how to meet the challenges of international expansion in order to tap into the international talent pool and support your company's global growth.
  • Learn how the Global Employer of Record model works.
