Designing a Future-Ready Relocation Programme for Going Global
For the modern business, staying still is equivalent to going backwards. Organisational growth was listed as a top enterprise priority for 53% of participants of SIRVA’s 2018 Mobility Report, Talent Mobility for Business Growth - Aligning Practices to Drive Organisational Impact. However, expanding internal operations without a strategic programme is not enough to address this priority and drive growth alone. Companies need to prepare their people and processes for global growth opportunities when they arise.
A relocation programme, including a policy framework, workflow process and service delivery model, is critical to minimise costs and maximise employee and customer experience. With the proper infrastructure, a mobility programme can align to both the organisational and talent priorities of a business, regardless of scale or administrative complexity.
In this paper we will:
-
Discuss the evolution of global mobility programmes
-
Analyse the importance of aligning relocation programmes to the goals and priorities of the overall organisation.
-
Outline the required and recommended components of a relocation programme.
