Findings
It is often the highlight of someone’s entire career. After years of moving around the same offices or the same town, they finally get tapped on the shoulder and asked if they could share their expertise with the London office, or get embedded in Delhi for the while the new plant gets up and running. Suddenly, the humdrum daily grind is thrown out of the window, and an entirely new experience is ready to be digested and enjoyed.
Practical implications
Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
