Dear participants, supporters and friends, On behalf of the University of Cologne, Henkel Headquarters and CEMS, we would like to sincerely thank you for your participation and the valuable contribution that each of you made to the Corporate Partner Benchmarking Meeting 2013,
ATTRACTING TALENT IN EMERGING MARKETS The diversity and perspectives that participants brought to the event were critical to making it a success and we were overwhelmed at the interest and commitment that was demonstrated by so many to making it one. In order to ensure that all stakeholders benefit most from the efforts that you all put in, we would like to share with you today the presentations and workshop results. They truly enriched our view on this very multi-faceted topic, which lies at the center of CEMS and so many of its stakeholders’ activities. We hope you too are able to take away many valuable insights, apply them to your own fields and generate even more ideas on attracting talents in or from the emerging markets. We hope to maintain close contact with you in the future as we continue to strengthen the global CEMS community together. Yours, Kourosh Bahrami Corporate Vice President Henkel AG & Co. KGaA
