Abstract

The global mobility of people and how it has shaped the characteristics and culture of people living in different parts in the world will continue to defi ne our human story. It will also determine how we deal with top-of-mind management issues, such as the competition for talent and people development. Today, we are faced with a convergence of disruptive factors that will further spur global mobility. Demographic imbalance is one key factor. We do not have a healthy distribution of the old and young across countries; there are either too many or too few of one or the other.
