Navigating Global HR Policies Through Local Realities

This session examines why global HR policies are applied and perceived differently across regions, drawing on experience in APAC and Europe. We will explore the tensions between global consistency and local needs, and look at how local HR teams, regional hubs, central functions, and global leadership each view the same policy. The focus is on practical strategies to balance global frameworks with local realities, ensuring policies remain flexible, culturally aware, and operationally effective. Participants will leave with clear insights on how to strengthen alignment and collaboration across the HR ecosystem.
