Here's what you have to think about when you hire people, globally
One of the best things about running a global company is that you get to work with amazing people from all over the world.
But sometimes, you need to relocate them to a different country for various reasons: visa issues, tax benefits, team alignment, etc.
This can be a daunting process for both the employer and the employee. There are so many factors to consider: legal requirements, cultural differences, cost of living, family situation, etc.
That's why I always follow these 3 principles when I relocate someone overseas:
1. Communicate clearly and frequently. Relocation is a big decision that affects every aspect of someone's life. You need to make sure they understand why they are moving, what they can expect, and how you will support them. You also need to listen to their concerns and address them as soon as possible.
2. Offer generous and flexible compensation. Relocation is not only stressful but also expensive. You need to cover all the costs involved: flights, accommodation, shipping, taxes, etc. You also need to adjust their salary according to the local market and their personal needs. And you need to give them some leeway in case they change their mind or encounter unforeseen challenges.
3. Respect their autonomy and culture. Relocation is not only a professional but also a personal choice. You need to respect their preferences and values. You also need to help them integrate into the new environment and culture. And you need to give them some space and time to adjust and settle down.
Relocating someone overseas is not easy, but it can be rewarding for both parties if done right.
You get to retain and develop your top talent, and they get to experience new opportunities and growth.
