"Global Talent Survey", as it was named, covered more than 203,755 people in 189 countries, including 1,886 Moroccans.
ReKrute.com, in partnership with the world's leading employment portal The Network and the leading strategy consulting firm The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), has just released the results of a survey on the behaviors and expectations of Moroccans in career management.
"Global Talent Survey", as it was named, covered more than 203,755 people in 189 countries, including 1,886 Moroccans. The very large sample includes a category of fairly young Moroccans (74% under 34 years old) who work in large companies.
Overall, 82% of the global sample, beyond their motivation, are ready to leave their job if other opportunities prove more interesting.
According to the study, "the analysis of the motivations that would push them to leave their job reveals, in order of importance, learning and career development, good relationships with superiors and colleagues, responsibility, and work-life balance." The financial factor comes in 8th position in the list of main reasons for changing jobs!
Of the 77% of the global population ready to expatriate, Morocco is also well above average with a rate of 64% for mobile people. "The majority of them want to leave for more than 5 years, but only 12% have really started the departure procedures.
The reasons that lead them to consider expatriation are again linked to responsibilities and career development," say the sponsors of the study. As for the destination, Moroccans have not really changed their choice, the capital of France coming first, followed by Dubai, Montreal, New York and London. The survey also highlights that "the Moroccan workforce appears to be the most gender-balanced in the Arab world". And it is the industrial, IT and consumer goods sectors that are the most popular. The banking sector has been relegated to fifth place!
As for foreigners wishing to work in Morocco, the results of the survey revealed that "Morocco remains an attractive destination in the world". 7% of those surveyed place Morocco among their favorite destinations (14,262 people). And Tunisians are the first to cite Morocco as the top destination to find a new professional start! Qatar and Saudi Arabia come in 4th and 5th place in terms of destination.
"Unlike Moroccans, attracted by the international, one third of them have started the procedures, which demonstrates a real willingness." The conclusions of this survey are enlightening. And the main criteria to be highlighted by potential employers are the working language, the type of contract offered and the duration of the mission. In short, for Morocco, this study reveals that mobility is truly part of the individual's behavior. A mobility justified by a strong predisposition to adaptation.

Landmarks and strategy
A company automatically conveys values and ideas, even ideals. Its employees, depending on how they are treated, will relay a state of mind that will either tarnish or embellish the image of the company, depending on the strategy employed by the manager. The moral of the story: leaders must always ensure that the energies and impulses of employees are rather oriented in the positive sense of the term. Because sooner or later, the company's brand will be influenced. And that's where the need to communicate better and reiterate the fundamentals of the company's overall strategy comes from. Even if the company does not have a communication department, it will have to choose at a given moment to clearly convey messages that will protect the brand from any potential damage. An anniversary, the end of the year, the board of directors represent as many symbolic dates that the manager could use to bring together his teams and reiterate the landmarks of the strategy. It's an excellent way to, in short, reset the clock for those who are far from the hierarchy and who are not necessarily aware of the events relating to the life of the company. Indeed, feeling "out" very often leads to demotivation.
Over the days, employees will simply see their job as a series of tasks to perform. But again, in the best-case scenarios, the employee who positions himself as such will never feel involved in the company's overall strategy. He will never be able to project himself into such a configuration. And if these landmarks are biased by a perception that is his own due to his isolation, he risks conveying erroneous messages concerning the company's overall strategy. This case is very common in companies in crisis situations. Which is the best way to make the company sink further. The manager must be aware of this because the salvation of the company entrusted to him depends on his messages.
