Mobility moments: Kimi’s story

Depending on the role, employee mobility needs aren’t one-size-fits-all. Senior team leaders need access to mobile-ready candidates to quickly fill positions on their teams. Human resource members need an integrated platform with readily available data to help their people get moving. Project managers need to be ready to go wherever they’re needed and have the best resources available to settle into their assignments. In this series, we highlight stories of people navigating the world of mobility with Vialto Partners.

Kimi, VP of Growing Global Company

Kimi is the vice president of a growing global company. She’s leading the planning and delivery of a major project that could open the door to other work. Most positions will be staffed virtually, but the project requires some on-the-ground work in the EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions. She’s focused on hiring the right project manager for her Singapore team.

Kimi’s hiring hurdles

Kimi needs to find the best manager possible for her Singapore team. She needs a mobility platform that has analytic capabilities, cost visibilities, quick turnarounds and access to employees who can add to her project as fast as possible.

She needs a mobility platform that’s:

Productive

• Mobility that is easy and cost-effective
• Processes that minimize administrative effort

Worry-free

• Trust that cross-border employees are safe and secure
• Confidence in the well-being of mobile employee families
• Mobile experiences that bolster employee careers

Compliant

• Confidence that employees are complying with regulatory requirements
• Automated alerts for mobile employee risks

Kimi unlocks the power of mobility

Step one: identify and select the talent

Using Vialto Partners’ mobility platform, Kimi considers her project needs and determines the mobility type and policies that align with business objectives, cost parameters and deployment timeline. The integrated predictive model then pulls data from company HR systems to match people with the right skills, experience and mobile readiness.

Kimi reviews a comprehensive talent composition report that dives into each individual’s fit based on the project while minding the budget.

Kimi selects Greta and initiates the pre-assignment process directly in the tool. Marcus, the talent manager, is automatically notified through the system.

Step two: monitor the project

The system automatically prompts Kimi for needed approvals and notifies her of any delays in Greta’s deployment. When necessary, it links her to Marcus.

Kimi automatically receives periodic updates via the real-time analytics tool on how Greta is adjusting in Singapore, based on push surveys Greta completes. The data is entered automatically in the system to support Greta’s ongoing career development.
