For the computer engineer position, KOYO opted to bring someone from its
headquarters in Europe who was already working in the Middle West region. This
decision reflects the use of an intra-regional transfer, where a highly skilled
employee from the parent company is moved to a foreign subsidiary. This approach
has two key advantages:
Consistency in Organizational Culture and Knowledge Transfer: Bringing in
someone from the headquarters ensures that the employee is already well-
versed in KOYO’s corporate culture, work ethics, and internal processes. This
enhances consistency across the organization and facilitates the seamless
transfer of knowledge and best practices from the headquarters to the
subsidiary.
Lower Relocation Costs and Faster Adaptation: Since the individual is already
located in the Middle West, the costs associated with relocation and cultural
adaptation are reduced. This allows for quicker integration into the new
position, as the employee is familiar with the host region’s environment,
including any regulatory or operational differences.
2. Regional Transfer for the Programmer Position:
