What does it take to access global talent without creating global chaos? Arif Khimani, President & COO at MobSquad, joins the podcast to explore why workforce geography has become a strategic leadership decision - and why neither office-bound hiring nor unrestricted work from anywhere offers a complete answer. Global workforce planning involves a difficult trade-off. Organisations want broader access to critical skills and greater flexibility, but operating across too many countries and time zones introduces legal, cultural and operational complexity. Arif makes the case for a bounded model built around clear priorities, realistic capabilities and carefully selected markets.
