Globalization of Professional Services

Más información sobre el libro

In the past, professional services were primarily organized to meet local needs and legal requirements. However, the landscape has shifted dramatically towards highly integrated global business models. To serve clients effectively on a global scale, professional services firms must transition from local to distributed global sales and delivery structures. This book compiles extensive experience, insights, and future directions from international business practitioners, academics, and market researchers, structured into four parts. Part I, “Winning Strategies and Innovative Ideas,” lays the groundwork by discussing core strategies driving globalization and introducing key paradigms. Part II, “Successful Processes for Realization,” offers solutions for establishing effective processes in delivering global professional services. Part III, “Inspired Talent Management,” focuses on the essential aspect of the industry: attracting, developing, and retaining talent in the right locations. Finally, Part IV presents “Experiences and Case Studies,” addressing various facets of building a successful global professional services firm. Overall, this handbook equips firms and clients with a robust foundation to strategically respond to significant global changes and leverage them for business advantages, providing a comprehensive perspective on the successful globalization of professional services.
