Strategic Partnerships
What are the benefits of international recruitment for businesses?
International recruitment offers several advantages for businesses. First, international markets often have a better perception of recruitment, making partnerships easier to establish. In some markets, there's less competition, allowing recruiters to build stronger partnerships. Additionally, retained executive search is more common internationally, enabling better client relationships. Lucy's company, LCR International, has leveraged these benefits to make hires in over 20 countries across six continents. Their industry-specific approach rather than geography-focused strategy has proven successful, reducing the need for business development as clients rely on them for international hiring across all functions and locations.

How can I grow my network on LinkedIn to generate high-paying leads?
To grow your LinkedIn network effectively, implement strategic connection planning by focusing on people in your niche rather than random connections. Use the Dream 100 concept - instead of directly targeting influential accounts, connect with people in their networks first, which eventually leads to connecting with key figures. The LinkedIn algorithm rewards users who leave thoughtful, detailed comments on others' content, which builds your authority and visibility. Consistency in engaging with relevant content before posting your own is crucial. When you do post, use short, punchy hooks that evoke curiosity and encourage meaningful comments, which fuels algorithmic promotion of your content.
