We are excited to announce our latest, and very timely, Sirva Soundbites podcast episode, exploring the significant global immigration shifts driven by the "Super Election Year" of 2024. With elections taking place in the UK, EU, and the US, as well as other key global regions, we examine how political outcomes are shaping immigration strategies worldwide.

Season 3 Episode 5 Join Sirva Soundbites host Emma Dodwell-Groves, with Ray Rackham, Senior Vice President, Global Client Solutions & Thought Leadership at Newland Chase, as they dive into the dual role of immigration—whether it’s protecting local labor markets or revitalizing economies—and how political discourse often conflates economic migration with asylum issues.

Emma and Ray discuss the rising protectionist rhetoric, anti-immigrant sentiment, and how this affects talent mobility amidst aging populations and labor shortages. Key takeaways from this episode include:

  • Understanding how the push towards immigration reform has potential long-term impacts on global talent mobility.
  • Recognizing the larger geopolitical influences on global immigration policies.
  • Identifying key strategies to help your talent mobility program better prepare for immigration challenges.
