What is the business case for diversity?
Here are five ways that diversity will make your business stronger, especially when it is achieved by hiring internationally trained global talent.
- Global talent can help solve your skill shortage. Your company needs highly motivated, skilled workers. The greater your pool of workers, the better your chance of finding that next great employee.
- It makes good business sense to have a workforce that is representative of your customer base and your community.
- Global talent brings fresh ideas and new approaches. Employers are often pleasantly surprised to discover that newcomers bring innovative ideas and a broad range of experiences that put their company ahead of the pack.
- Global talent allows you to compete globally. The language skills of newcomers and their understanding of international markets and cultures can open doors.
- Newcomers can be very loyal employees. Pay them fairly, offer opportunities for advancement and they will bring great commitment to their work. Your retention rate could improve, saving money on recruiting and training costs.
