Your business is booming, and you've decided to take it global. Congratulations! You're about to experience a whole new world of logistical, cultural, and organizational challenges.
Here's how you can make sure your expansion goes smoothly:
-Get the right help. Expand your team with people who have expertise in the countries to which you're expanding. Let them help you tailor your products and services for the new markets and make sure that your organizational structure is set up to manage different time zones.
-Localize your hiring process. Use local resources like job boards and employment agencies to find candidates who are familiar with the norms of the hiring process in the country where you're expanding. This will help ensure that you find qualified applicants who know what they need to do to apply for a job with your company, making it more likely that you'll find employees who are good fits for your organization.
-Communicate clearly about roles and expectations. Set up regular meetings with all of your teams so that everyone involved knows exactly what is expected of them—and has plenty of opportunities to ask questions or raise concerns. Make sure that all of your employees understand how their role fits into the larger plan for international expansion, so they feel like they're contributing to something bigger than just the normal routines.
