CHICAGO-Jones Lang LaSalle Inc., based here, has promoted 26 of the firm’s employees to the position of international director. The newly promoted directors are from Hong Kong, London, Germany, Shanghai and Mexico, Australia, Japan, Dubai, Ireland, Netherlands, Singapore and the US. “We have an internal titling structure, (and) the international director designation is the top level in that structure,” says Peter Roberts, CEO of the Americas for Jones Lang LaSalle.

The employees promoted in the US include staff from Chicago, Los Angeles, Washington DC. Approximately 200 of the firm’s 25,000 employees have the designation, Roberts says. The firm gives the designations once a year. “We place a huge amount of value on our people and our human capital,” he says. The title does not change the person’s job duties but “it places increasing responsibility on them as global leaders,” Roberts says.
