Background:

 

Thailand was originally known as Siam and established as the Thai kingdom in the 14th Century. It is the only country in Southeast Asia not to have been directly controlled by a European power. A constitutional monarchy was put in place in 1932 and has existed ever since. 

The country’s economic progress has been impressive over most of the past 10 years. In 2006, political uncertainty from a military intervention that ousted the democratically elected government.  The result has been various policy and legislative changes that reduced investor enthusiasm. Many of the most harmful of these changes have been withdrawn but investor sentiment has not yet recovered. 

 

Appraisal of Management Talent

 

Available Types:

Thailand has an adequate supply of capable middle management and country management talent who are well thought of by international managers.  Given that Thailand does not yet have a large number of regional head-quarters of multinational companies, the country does not have a significant number of senior management people.  

 

Thailand is considered one of the most desirable places to live in Asia because of its delightful people, beautiful country and inexpensive cost of living.  For this reason, a growing number of localized expatriate managers are available in the country who are motivated to do what is necessary to allow them to remain in the country. 

 

Education Standards:

Thailand has a small supply of managers with international schooling.  

 

Career Experience:

Local managers in Thailand are thought to be able to perform at international levels.  Multinational experience (rather than local company experience) is considered necessary for managers to perform at international levels.  

 

Career Stability:

Thai's are gracious and delightful people capable of forming strong relationships with people and, therefore, they exhibit above average career stability.  In most industries, it is possible to hire senior country management people with a history of long-term employment relationships.  If managed effectively and sensitively, they can be counted upon to be loyal to their managers. 

 

Language Skills:

The majority of the educated elite in Thailand speak acceptable English. Outside of this narrow group, international communication skills are difficult to find.     

 

Candidate Mobility:

Thai's are interesting is that they are often resistant to relocating outside Thailand, even for career advancement purposes.  This is a great shame since Thai managers are highly regarded by international managers.  Despite their charming graciousness and elegant mannerisms, they are said to be profoundly pleased with own their country and don't feel there is benefit by leaving it.  

 

Compensation:

Despite the high-quality of Thai managers, Thailand has income levels that are lower than those of so-called developed countries.
