Supporting Global Teams
Increasingly, organisations have staff based in other countries or are part of project teams that cross borders. Expatriate assignments, short term exchanges and business visits, all provide an opportunity for cultural embarrassment, creation of exclusion, ethical dilemmas and miscommunication.
Global Leadership Workshops
Tailored to your organisation, Protostar provide workshops designed to equip leaders with the appropriate skills (and some specific cultural knowledge) to lead globally. All Protostar consultants have a proven record of working globally, allowing us to provide real life examples.
Expatriate/International Hire Support
For organisations that intend to send an employee abroad, or to hire in a unfamiliar country, the choice of candidate and their preparation is key to success.
Protostar will support the selection, using structured interviews and psychometrics designed to identify employees who are more likely to succeed in an international role.
Once the candidate is selected; employing them, obtaining work permits, issuing a contract; ensuring that they are paid and taxed correctly can be highly problematic. Protostar can support all aspects of this process and in the absence of an expatriate policy, can help organisations to launch one.
If the employee is moving to the UK, Protostar offer a wide range of support, from obtaining their visa to assisting with housing and schools.
