Executive Overview In recent years, there has been much buzz around talent shortage, acquisition and retention as well as cross-border talent migration. There is also an increasing interest in understanding generational differences and employee engagement in the hopes of solving talent-related challenges that are vital to business growth. Among the critical factors, compensation is often cited as a key solution to tackling talent issues. Through this salary guide, we aim to provide an overview of how different professional skills, responsibilities and qualifications are compensated. The data is gathered from our practical experience working with major multinational clients from a multitude of industries. We hope that this will be an effective benchmarking tool for you. Our Global Workforce Survey has shown that when it comes to making career decisions, compensation and benefits, while an important factor, ranks third. It is outranked by personal fulfilment/work-life balance and personal growth/advancement. With this in mind, we would like to bring to your attention other talent attraction and retention elements, such as corporate culture, employee engagement, career advancement plans, reputation for innovation, and corporate social responsibility. In this 2013/2014 edition, I am also pleased to introduce a new segment, one that captures valuable insights from industry insiders. We feel that it is useful to have a realistic snapshot of the goings-on from professionals in the field. We would like to express our appreciation to valued clients and candidates who have graciously contributed their views. Published economic projections indicate that 2013 looks to be a year of internal growth and aggressive expansion towards neighbouring countries like Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia. Brace yourself for a positively active year ahead. We hope you are ready for an even more heated competition for high calibre, skilled and multi-lingual talent to drive the growth in this increasingly important economic zone we call ASEAN.

The Inside Track According to our industry experts, the general business outlook is positive as Asia continues on a strong growth momentum. The upcoming ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), due to take shape in 2015, is helping to spur the growth of this region as companies expand or increase their market coverage into Indochina and Myanmar. Companies see the need to be bolder and to be prepared to operate in unfamiliar territories. As the borders open, companies that are ready to compete will flourish. The AEC will have direct impact on the talent shortage situation, which is currently a major obstacle in the growing economies of this region. The demand of qualified and bilingual talent has continued to increase at a rate unmatched by the growth in local supply. There is a critical need for organizations to reevaluate their talent acquisition tactics in order to ensure sustainability and continuity of growth. Technology and social networking have become an important channel to reach the available talent pool. That being said, social networking is a double-edged sword as it conversely allows competitors and hiring companies to reach internal talent directly. With this in mind, talent retention is also a serious challenge that companies need to tackle in keeping attrition in check. Innovation and ingenuity are clearly needed to ensure continuity and sustainability of businesses. It is worth noting that employer branding is among the top attributes that appeal to talent. Candidates look for the corporate profile, vision and strategy that resonate with them. Jobseekers not only opt to take on roles that are meaningful to them, they are also looking to be a part of a company that upholds the same values. Companies that play an active role in corporate social responsibility appear to garner more interest from job-seekers. Employers need to understand generational differences in belief systems and behaviors in order to anticipate the needs of their workforce, and craft out the appropriate benefits and tools to engage and retain their employees. From the various surveys conducted on employees globally, financial benefits are not the number one reason why they decide to join or leave a company. To win the war for talent, employers need to be ahead of the game by understanding what makes employees tick, create an environment and provide relevant tools that excite high caliber talent as well as effective enough to retain them.
