Who We Are

The Birches Group traces its roots to the international public sector, the United Nations, where its team of specialists have acquired extensive experience in following and analyzing working conditions and practices unique to the emerging economies of the developing world.

Drawing on its extensive international expertise, the Birches Group has worked to build a network of transnational employers, as well as organize and analyze labour market, management and organization development issues throughout the emerging economies. Its specialists provide information, training and consultancy services tailored to the specific needs and areas of activity of public and private organizations operating globally. In serving its clients, the Birches Group role is to promote competitiveness and productivity in the working environment by helping organizations to identify and align optimal compensation and organizational structures with corporate strategies.

Our Mission

While seeking to offer new opportunities and rewards for creativity, leadership and best performance, the increasingly demanding and globalized environment in which many organizations operate challenges their ability to compete flexibly and innovatively and adapt to changing realities.

To respond to this challenge, organizations need both market intelligence and a framework to assess their own performance, define contributions to value, identify weaknesses and risks and reshape their corporate environment and culture accordingly. Central to this process is the recognition and integration of human capabilities – the human capital – at the heart of every organization.

The Birches Group helps organizations to understand the roles and needs of individual employees in their different functions, the market value of their positions and to harness and utilize this human capital creatively in pursuit of professional development and corporate achievement.
