The risk isn't the global mobility industry changing - it's us not changing with it
One theme that surfaced repetitively at several recent industry events is that our industry is transforming faster than ever, and many of us who work in the industry – from HR teams to service providers - are quietly wondering whether we're keeping up.
Key trends in Asian and Middle Eastern markets
British schools are increasingly looking at new opportunities and new markets in Asia and the Middle East, but cultural, regulatory and financial restrictions mean that they have to plan carefully. Increasingly, aspirational middle class families want their children to speak and learn in English, but they also prioritise an education that maintains the values and language of their own culture, as Marianne Curphey reports.
Early careers and future-proofing talent pipelines
Early career roles are shrinking, expectations are shifting, and the skills landscape is moving faster than talent systems can respond. How can people professionals ensure talent, future capability and organisational resilience?

International school openings create more options for families
With well over 15,000 international schools there are more choices than ever available but parents relocating abroad will do well to remember that much of that demand is being driven by locals too

Organisations master the complexities of relocation: visas, policies, payroll, family, home search. But what slips through is the career trajectory before, during and after a move. With nearly 40% of expats leaving within a year of returning home, one lever needs more attention: sponsorship.
