We will have to start looking at virtual assignments or working from different locations for the new one and really looking to reduce the number of mobilization. So that is the coming in new ways because of the recent changes.

Answer: Global Mobility is Rewarding, Incredible and Dynamic. Global Mobility includes lots of different dynamics that and those dynamics have their own individual dynamics.

How does Global Mindset effect Global Mobility?
