The Complete Global Mobility Making the Difference Global Mobility is really enabling your associates, your employees, to be mobile, right, and to support the organization on a global scale.

I think it's often overlooked and super critical for the success of the assignment. Regardless of the location.

Global Mobility & Immigration At the center of Relocation is Immigration Moving an employee across borders to work the key element of any Global Mobility program and without effective Immigration processes this would not be possible. Immigration is what Global Mobility HR Professionals need to be aware of and always in tune with. You want to avoid having a situation where the employee gets to the airport and they're denied entry because they either don't have the proper visa or the proper paperwork in order to enter that country. Immigration is actually the first piece of the puzzle of Global Mobility - done right it makes for a smooth as possible Global Mobility program.

Global Mobility Seat at the Table Ensuring Relevance Global Mobility can ensure its relevance, by aligning its strategies with the business objectives and as well as leveraging, technology, to enhance operational efficiency and also improve customer or employee experience. You always have to prove your relevance, in whatever aspect, whatever seat at the table you actually take. And I always perceived global mobility as the enabler of the business. So we facilitate the moving we facilitate the business, facilitate even the financial operations.

Global Mobility Making Policies Preparing Researching Benchmarking our Global Mobility policies and looking at the right fit is key. I think providing or looking at the benchmarks, not only within your industry, but within the mobility market space is incredibly important. When making her amending global mobility policies, my number one advice is to know in advance what you're trying to solve for and know what your employee needs are. Ensure that you have baseline data to start with. I always recommend a survey or a focus group prior to making any policy changes, to really understand what's important to your employee.

Global Mobility Employee Well-Being A Key Priority From a global mobility perspective, it's about trying to understand those needs be a bit encouraging and try and allow the employee to juggle that that work balance post, you know, moving. I think offering support for family members in our relocation policies is critical here, such as offering spousal support at home, finding school search support. These types of benefits are really going to help the family integrate into their new community and really ease in the transition to any new location.

Global Mobility 2024 to 2025 Preparation & Planning Watch, Includes Global Mobility HR insights from the HR event GMJ Congress December 2024! Global Mobility is helping talent get to the locations they are needed in. This may be in the same country or continent or across the world. Sometimes this means that we're only moving the employee. Other times it means that we're moving the entire family.

The Shape of Global Mobility Defining Talents Location Most simply put, global mobility is helping talent get to the locations they are needed in. My definition of global mobility is really, you know, the act of helping an individual or an individual in his or her family move from one country to another. I know that there is a lot of domestic relocations, but my experience is primarily cross-border movement. So it's anything and everything that entails immigration and tax, pension, social securities, banking, housing, shipment of goods.

The Importance of being Global Mobility Supporting Talent Global mobility has definitely earned our seat at the table, especially the last several years where we've taken on new work. While there has been remote work, business travel. I think to keep the seat at the table, we have to stay agile and innovative. It's, dynamic environment, when we need to be constantly on top of everything because, as I said, dynamic environment, requires a lot of dynamic decisions and, for us, it's, it's a chance, but it's a, it's an opportunity, but also it's a huge challenge how to be on top of everything. And make sure that we are capturing all changes or, or all challenges from all possible angles, taxes, immigration, social security, relocation from employer perspective, from employer perspective.

Power of AI and Global Mobility Making Progress I expect technology to play a crucial role in our evolution as we introduce AI and data analytics to better manage compliance and track employee movement. AI is super important for mobility. I guess all the mobility professionals would agree with. And I can, take out a lot of friction, especially in the low mobility processes, beat automating repetitive routine tasks such as, I don't know, document tracking and, take it one step further. We could use or leverage AI to engage in predictive analysis to help us better plan.
