Fireside Chats

with Ann Swain

Global economic volatility and shifting talent dynamics are prompting staffing firms to look beyond their home markets in search of sustainable, recurring revenue. For leaders focused on building long term enterprise value, international expansion is no longer a speculative growth lever. It is a strategic priority that demands rigorous planning, disciplined execution and strong compliance foundations.

 

In the premiere episode of Fireside Chats with Ann Swain, APSCo's Global CEO speaks with Amy Davies, Managing Director at Workwell Global, and APSCo Representative Committee Member, about the realities and strategic imperatives of taking a recruitment business across borders.

Topics covered include:

  • The challenges and common pitfalls of scaling a staffing business into new countries.

  • Leadership in a global business, including managing teams dispersed across multiple time zones.

  • How to export your company’s DNA — embedding your standards of service, compliance, and culture across regions.

  • Aspects of cultural adaptation, both internally within teams and externally in local markets.
