FASTCOLLAB 6 THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN SENDING EMPLOYEES ON INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS TRIP
•
A survey in 2012 by the Global Business Travel Association reported that companies have higher productivity expectations from employees going to business trips. However, an un organised & unplanned business trip can prove to be exhaustive and might result in lower output results than expected.
•
1. Book flights and hotel reservations in advance: Knockout big things such as flight booking and hotel reservations as soon as you get a confirmation on employee’s travel plans. It will assist organisations to get the greatest deals & save some much-required money in those initial stages of business.
•
2. Check Visa and Passport Requirements : Preparing in advance to get done with Passports & Visas, is a no-brainer, to save company’s time & trouble in the long run.
•
3. Fix all appointments and schedules : No matter which level of employee is travelling, make sure their meetings are well planned and communicated in advance. Planning ahead also shows customers, vendors, & investors that employees are responsible & organized.
•
4. Courier Items separately : Without doubt flying depletes energy, so try to simplify the journey of your employees by mailing items such as product specimens in advance. They add weight to drag about and frequently get broken or squished in the suitcase.
•
5. Communicate all stakeholders in advance : When employees are sent abroad (specially for more than a week), it is best to keep well informed about the itinerary to all the stakeholders, like – manager, team members or client. This will help the team to fill-in the duties of the travelling employees, in their absence.
•
6. Arrange personal time-off for employees : After cruising through meetings & client visits round the clock, encourage your employees to look-out for spending some time recuperating. Personal growth makes a better leader & experiencing different cultures expands creative mind.
