The Gen-Z Relo Handbook

Gen Z doesn’t want a relocation process that feels like it was assembled in 2009 and stored in a shared drive named FINAL_final_REVISED. They’re entering the workforce with a very different definition of what a good experience looks like. They expect information to be easy to find, technology to make things simpler, and answers to […]

The Gray Areas of AI in Relo

Everyone’s talking about AI like it’s about to run relocation start to finish. Automation is absolutely changing mobility: It speeds up tasks. Improves visibility. Helps teams identify patterns faster.   And yes, all of that matters, but relocation still lives in the messy middle: real people, real stress, and real decisions that don’t come with […]

Much has been written about recent changes in U.S. immigration policy. Various administrations have implemented measures intended to reshape immigration flows, influence labor markets, and encourage domestic investment.  This is not an argument for or against a particular immigration policy; it’s a look at what can happen when policy objectives meet the realities of workforce […]

The Future Belongs to Better Questions

When I started writing this series, I thought I was exploring a handful of challenges facing our industry: lean teams, lump sums, employee choice, and preparedness. Looking back, I wasn’t writing about any of those things. I was writing about adaptation. Our industry exists to help people navigate change. Yet too often, I think we’re […]

When Employee Choice Becomes Employee Pressure

In my last article, I suggested that we’ve been asking the wrong question about lump sum programs. Lump sums have become an important part of modern mobility, and I don’t see that changing. What interests me is what comes after the payment. I previously introduced this idea: Choice is only empowering when people feel equipped […]

Expense Management: The Hidden Stress Point in Relocation

Expense management is where relocation programs quietly fall apart: Receipts in inboxes. Approvals stuck in limbo. Employees wondering when reimbursement will happen. Finance teams trying to forecast costs without clear visibility.   None of this shows up in a polished mobility strategy presentation, but it shows up everywhere else, because when expense tracking becomes messy, […]

We’ve Been Asking the Wrong Question About Lump Sums

Why Intern Mobility is Straining Lean Relocation and HR Operating Models

Part 1: Why Intern Mobility Feels Harder Every Year Every year, companies make the same mistake. They treat intern mobility like a lightweight version of standard relocation. It isn’t. In fact, some of the most overwhelmed HR, Mobility, and University Relations teams I know aren’t struggling with executive relocations; they’re struggling with interns. Why? Because […]

Signs Your Lump Sum Program is Breaking at Scale (Before Leadership Notices)

Every growing company experiences a version of the same story: we’ve outgrown our office, our hiring process, our systems. What few organizations consider is that they can outgrow a relocation program, too. The irony is that lump sum programs are often implemented in the name of simplicity. They offer flexibility, reduce administrative burden, and give […]
