Today's social media platforms and digital marketplaces don't have walls or borders, but how does that affect your functional CPG brand? With a few clicks of your mouse, you can fire up your functional CPG brand's multinational marketing and retail distribution. It's really crazy how fast and easy things can be done in 2020. Despite uncertain global markets, entrepreneurship is still in the middle of the golden era because of the growing importance of ecommerce and social media. That all being said, one thing that has been reinforced during the "COVID-19 Effect" is that functional CPG business owners were reminded there isn't and shouldn't be a "one size fits all" approach to business domestically or multi-nationally! Being a multinational functional CPG shouldn't mean you seek global parity. Instead, functional CPG brands should have a global template, but with local adaptations. The fancy business school jargon for this is Glocalization and it's exactly what successful functional CPG brands must do as the world becomes one, but also more fragmented. It's a complex strategy to pull off, but if executed properly the rewards are immensely valuable.

Glocalization. Does this “portmanteau of globalization and localization” (Wikipedia) describe your company's growth? If yes, the dichotomy will challenge your HR team as they try to manage a mobile workforce and multi-country payroll. If not yet, your time will come. The experts speak. David Ludlow: “The world is 'glocal' (play on the combination of think globally, act locally). Today's talent is global, connected, and mobile. New categories of solutions are required to leverage that talent to out-innovate the competition.” Marianne Langlois: “HR must think of itself as a function that drives the business forward, instead of as a function that supports the business.” Penny Stoker: “You can't underestimate the power of a ‘singular, global payroll system.'” Keith Strodtman: “Today, large global companies are realizing big benefits from centralizing payroll across boundaries--cost savings, compliance, data accuracy, reporting, etc.” Join us for Going Glocal: Mastering Multi-Country HR.
