You are the newly hired HR Project Coordinator – International. You are new to the organization – just got hired because you interviewed very well and sold yourself on being able to accept new and diverse experiences creating people-focused strategy plans.
The assignment is to open a new office and to hire staff in the office within the next 4 months. You have got to get acclimated to the new country before you begin hiring the team. You have not had an overseas assignment, so you will need to do research on what steps to take as a leader and working in HR. Think about the information in the chapter. You do not want to fail and this role will immediately lead to another promotion if this assignment goes well.
Develop a checklist of what you would do to prepare for an extended overseas assignment – your first one… using the following categories:
Most important (Must Do for success)
Next important (Need to Do for success)
Likely important (Should Do for success)
From reading Chapter 3, to ensure your work and your talents are aligned for the assignment focus on key areas to make you successful … use what you have learned so far. Select from one of the following assignment locations to complete your checklist:
Hong Kong, China
Jakarta, Indonesia
The Republic of Singapore, Singapore
Cape Town, South Africa
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
