What added value does International personnel bring to your company?

They bring diversity in the workplace. This is very important at Nike. International personnel also bring more international experience which fits the culture at Nike. It brings with it unique strengths and can complement well the weaknesses. Another advantage of the diversity is the opportunity for employees' personal growth. Being exposed to new ideas, cultures and perspectives can help the team to reach out intellectually and gain a clearer view of their surroundings and their place in the world. Having international people from different backgrounds and experiences can inspire more creative ideas and methods of solving problems.

Eoin Wallace - Portfolio Manager at Nike

I’m working for Fluke since 2007, and in my department we have a massive presence of International personnel, this is an added value to our company, because it brings a broad overview of the business, different mentality and flexibility aside from the language skills.

Being an International, what added value do you bring to your company?

Due to my international background I’ve been exposed to many different working cultures, different working methods and many different situations that I would have not experienced if I stayed in my home country. I strongly believe this exposure is the added value I bring to the company because thanks to the experiences I’ve had, I’m quicker and more flexible when it comes to reacting to changes or when it comes to fit into new roles/responsibilities. I believe companies appreciate this “edge” I bring with me and leverage it to achieve their goals.

I believe I add additional value to my company through my background in shipping/logistics as well as my awareness on how to deal with German and International business partners. I understand the German preciseness and punctuality and German regulations in shipping.

Moreover, I have discovered after working many years in my field, I can make a difference in my team by creating an environment of team spirit, encouraging each other in tuff times and continuously enjoy my job.
