Research and Practice Surveys

We conduct organisational research in emerging markets to create new insights for our clients and the broader leadership community. We believe consulting firms should contribute to a discipline of evidence-based management, not to encourage fads. The ability to understand and encourage good science and practice is one of our core capabilities.

We also use practice surveys to facilitate sharing of knowledge and learning across companies. Our business isn’t about touting “best practice.” We want to empower companies to act based on evidence of what works and to learn from their own and others’ experience.

Through these activities, we help our clients generate new insights that empower them to think and act; to help their companies grow faster, and adapt to the challenges of emerging markets.

Workforce Strategies for High-Growth Markets

Current models and approaches to workforce strategies and talent management were developed in relatively slow growing, developed markets. This line of research explores how companies in emerging markets successfully recruit, develop and retain talent.

Our current study explores Workforce Strategies for High-Growth Markets and focuses on China, India and Indonesia. This is being conducted in partnership with researchers at the National University of Singapore.

If you would like to involve your company in this research, please contact Andrea Mcintyre (andrea.mcintyre@organisationsolutions.com). For a white paper on our previous research in this area, please click here.

West to East

The centre of gravity for business is moving from West to East. As this shift accelerates, Organisation Solutions is exploring how multinational companies are moving people and parts of their business to Asia to keep up with the rapid pace of change in the global economy. This ongoing study helps decision-makers understand trends underway and learn from the experiences of others.

Executing Growth Strategies

Delivering on growth is a challenge anywhere. In China and other emerging markets it brings a whole new set of issues. In an ongoing study we uncover some of the ways to successfully execute a growth strategy in markets that are growing and changing fast. We look at what drives results and how to grow faster.
