We are currently witnessing dramatic changes in governments, treaties and borders that can present huge obstacles for business. This year has begun with the triggering of Article 50 and the new US Administration's changes to immigration and tax regulations. Now, we expect changes in France and Germany and perhaps to the EU too... So how can organisations anticipate and manage the consequences of so much upheaval?
If any professional discipline is equipped to cope with myriad challenges and tight deadlines, then it's Global Mobility - and by sharing ideas and best-practice - it is possible to transform such challenges into opportunities...
Join our panel of eminent industry figures to explore:
- What will the triggering of Article 50 mean for global mobility?
- Is your organisation ready to deal with change?
