## Overview of the course "Benefits of Building a Global Career"
"Please take an overseas assignment starting next month." How would you feel if you suddenly received such an order from your company?
Due to rapid globalization, the demand for corporate overseas expansion is increasing. In fact, the number of expatriates continues to grow. On the other hand, more than 60% of new employees have a mindset that they "do not want to work abroad," indicating an increasing number of business professionals in Japan who are passive about working overseas. Despite a business environment where companies must expand into overseas markets, training and motivating global talent with the drive to "generate profits globally" has become a major challenge.
In this course, we select top global leaders with overseas assignment experience from Insight Academy's network of approximately 5,000 global advisors. Based on interviews with them, we systematically explain "Why is an overseas assignment an opportunity?" and unravel the rarely discussed appeals of working abroad. To inspire a desire to challenge overseas assignments and global business, the interviews explain the appeal of building a global career from three perspectives: the "Life" aspect, such as better treatment, salary increases, and improved living conditions at the assignment location; the "Scarcity Value" aspect, where one's market value increases through the expatriate experience; and the aspect where the abilities, experiences, and assets developed through a global career become weapons for achieving "Self-actualization."
By focusing on how building a global-centric career is a positive for business professionals—a point rarely discussed until now—we aim to overturn negative images of overseas assignments, encourage people to seize the opportunity, and build the spirit to achieve results and high performance in a global environment.
This is a course we highly recommend to those scheduled for an overseas assignment or those who have vague anxieties about working in a global environment.
