Specialized Generalists & Subject Matter Specialists
HR Global Mobility Professionals must be Specialized Generalists to successfully navigate the multitude of complex GM disciplines on behalf of multiple stakeholders with competing interests. To maintain the required overview of the mobility landscape and connect all the dots, they need broad knowledge on many topics.
GM Service Providers are Specialists with deep expertise but only on specific topics. They provide precision problem-solving that Generalists alone cannot achieve.
In the Global Mobility ecosystem, these complementary roles create an essential partnership: neither can function effectively without the other.
We strongly recommend partnering with specialized experts (both global and country-specific) for each jurisdiction relevant to your global operations. The Navigator provides comprehensive background information and targeted checklists to help you prepare effectively for these consultations, understand the essential information requirements, and fully leverage the expert advice you receive.
