Global LT hires 10, named Michigan company to watch

Corporations don't just downsize when the economy shrinks. They also move employees around, which is where firms like Global LT come in.

The Troy-based firm has made its name over the last year or so by helping businesses grow into different markets and relocating key employees in new offices abroad. It has allowed the company to make 10 hires over the last year, expanding its staff to 45 employees, an intern, and anywhere between 175-220 independent contractors at any given time.

"We continue to focus on what has made us successful to this point," says Tom Hanson, Senior Vice President of Global LT. "It ain't broke. Why fix it?"

That has allowed the firm to be named one of the Michigan 50 Companies to Watch by Michigan Celebrates Small Business. It has also allowed for continued overseas expansion. There are plans to hire a few more people for its offices in the United Kingdom and China later this year.

Global LT offers services that help business people understand the language and culture of wherever they are going --whether it's a quick jaunt overseas or an ex-patriot relocation for corporations.
