Richa Gulati

Chapter 11 in Augmenting National and International Human Capital, 2026, pp 188-204 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter explores the strategic implications of Australia's 2024 Migration Strategy for multinational corporations managing expatriate talent. It highlights the evolving challenges and opportunities within a complex regulatory and geopolitical landscape, emphasising the need for integrated human capital strategies. By examining industry-specific case studies and proposing a bespoke framework, the chapter demonstrates how firms can leverage regulatory agility, cultural intelligence, technology integration, and stakeholder engagement to enhance expatriate management. The discussion also considers demographic shifts, sustainability concerns, and geopolitical factors shaping talent mobility. Ultimately, it underscores that effective expatriate management is a strategic imperative critical to organisational performance and Australia's positioning as a regional hub for innovation and investment.
