Hans Fenstermacher GALA Finding And Managing Global Talent In The Multilingual Era

Gerard O’Keefe GEOPal Solutions Enhance Existing Office Systems With Cloud Mobility

In a world with 24/7 connectivity, all markets are global. The skills to engage and succeed in this environment require a new kind of “global talent.” How do you identify which skills your company needs? What role do language and cultural skills play? How do technological and other factors (cloud, social media, multilingual requirements, and more) affect those needs? This session emphasizes the new global talent challenges that all companies are now facing.

Cloud computing is making a big impact on business. Accessible anywhere, anytime - SaaS platforms enable more businesses to support a mobile workforce. Managing that workforce cost-effectively can be difficult as traditional solutions required a large investment, but low-cost cloud solutions require no long term contracts, can plug-in to existing office systems and the increased operational efficiencies enabled by cloud mobility plugins create significant cost reductions for businesses.

NOTES

A FRESH VISION OF CONTEMPORARY LIVING Serviced apartments are fast becoming the popular choice with travel bookers for secondments and relocations because they offer more than the equivalent standard hotel: Marlin apartments have on average twice the space (a 1 bedroom Marlin apartment offers around 50m2 space), more comfort and ultimately more value for money. Put simply, a Marlin serviced apartment is a home from home. Each apartment has a fully-equipped kitchen where you can cook your own meals your own way, plus a modern bathroom with a bath and shower plus a selection of luxury L’Occitane toiletries.

Unbeatable Central London Locations Our apartments are situated across the capital in six popular business and leisure destinations. We provide properties within walking distance of all major financial destinations in the capital from Canary Wharf and the City of London to emerging destinations such as Stratford. We are never more than 5 minutes from the underground and each property is well-situated for all the day-to-day amenities. Our unbeatable locations mean you will spend less time worrying about how to travel to work each day and more time focused on settling in to your new surroundings. Our helpful concierge, based in each location, pride themselves on being local experts. They can tell you how to get to that meeting and where to eat on the way. We strive to ensure you experience best way of living like a Londoner.
