What is Nationalization?
Nationalization is the process of transitioning a position held by an expatriate to a qualified local employee. The goal is to ensure this transfer is effective, sustainable, and structured, with the expatriate acting as a mentor throughout the process.
Why Nationalization Matters
Nationalization supports sustainable development at both the company and country level. It strengthens local leadership while maintaining operational continuity and ensuring the workforce develops the required competencies.
We follow a structured, practical, and results-driven approach to nationalization. First, we analyse your organisation’s roles, processes, and requirements to create competence frameworks and assessment tools tailored to your needs. Then, we evaluate and select local employees based on their skills and growth potential.
During the transition, expatriates mentor the local employees, who learn through on-the-job training and coaching. We track progress using our Competence Assessment System (CAS), giving employees and managers clear visibility of development and readiness.
This approach builds strong local leadership, transfers knowledge effectively, and maintains high performance across the company.
