Sourcing top-notch talents for China Inc

Leadership expert excited about the 'extraordinary opportunities' for local recruitment

Kevin Connelly, a seasoned corporate headhunter and managing partner and chief executive officer of US-based global headhunter Spencer Stuart, said he felt quite excited about fresh developments in his industry. He and his colleagues have been successfully using their expertise to source professionals globally for Chinese State-owned companies.

Connelly said that a significant change in the mainland's recruitment industry in recent years was that Chinese companies were still sustaining high rates of growth while many leading mainland enterprises were looking to go global.
