Your people work across borders. Most HR practices were built for one country.
Once a team spans several countries, familiar HR questions get harder. How do you lead people whose cultures read the same message differently? How do you keep the employee experience fair when local expectations differ?
Add international assignments, hybrid teams working across time zones, and a workforce that mixes nationalities and generations, and a single global playbook starts to show gaps. This webinar works through ten themes at the centre of that problem.
Set globally
- One HR strategy
- A consistent employee experience
- Shared leadership standards
- International assignments
Lived locally
- Workforce needs that differ by country
- Different cultures and expectations
- Teams mixing nationalities and generations
- Distributed and hybrid teams
The session is about making both columns work at the same time.
The 10 themes, in four groups
Everything on the agenda, grouped by the part of the organisation it affects most.
Talent and mobility
- Managing talent across countries and regions
- Global mobility and the future of international assignments
- Developing globally mobile talent
Leadership
- Cross-cultural leadership for international organisations
- Building global leadership capabilities
Teams and communication
- Managing distributed and hybrid teams across borders
- Cross-cultural communication in global teams
- Building inclusive teams across nationalities and generations
HR strategy and experience
- Creating consistent employee experiences across countries
- Balancing global HR strategy with local workforce needs
Why 90 minutes? Ten themes need room. The longer format leaves time to go past definitions and into how each theme plays out in real organisations.
Who should attend

Questions before you register
When does the webinar start and end?
Thursday, 15 October 2026, from 8:30 to 10:00 PM India time (IST).
Is this only for HR professionals?
No. HR teams will get the most from the strategy and mobility themes, but the leadership, communication and hybrid team themes are just as useful for any manager leading people in more than one country.
Does my organisation need to be large and multinational?
No. If your team includes people in, or from, more than one country, most of these themes already apply to you.
