Sustaining ambition through stretch opportunities and international Assignments Combating cultural bias by building an infrastructure for female leadership (networks, mentors, sponsors) Introducing flexible work arrangements to accommodate family Obligations Providing safe transportation, such as employer-subsidized taxi services
Winning the War for Talent in Emerging Markets is required reading for all companies seeking to strengthen their talent pipeline in these rich and expanding markets. ISBN 9781422160602 ,
