Diversity in the globally mobile population 

“In terms of characterising the mobile population today, as opposed to years past, it’s certainly changing from a demographics perspective – whether that’s age or gender. “We’ve seen organisations having a big push to have more women into assignments – and obviously various family and demographic reasons have prevented it in the past. “What we are seeing is that organisations understand the value from a career-development perspective. “We are seeing that mobility will start to reflect more and more of the population as a whole.“As millennials continue to grow up through the workforce and become a larger portion of the population, I think that demographic reflects what we see in our day-to-day lives.”
