From Our Atlas Travel Advisory Board...
During a recent meeting of the Atlas Travel Advisory Board, Nan Lindstrom, travel coordinator for Zoll Medical, shared a great suggestion. Nan works in concert with her HR department to help indoctrinate corporate travelers about policies and procedures. She actually created a custom (short) letter of introduction that her HR department includes in their welcome packet for new employees. There she establishes online reservation expectations and gives her new travelers pertinent information about log-ins and simple instructions for creating travel profiles, etc. She then follows up with travelers personally to make sure they take time to read the travel information (because the packet is huge and she doesn't want the travel info to be lost in the shuffle).
This is a great way to establish travel policy expectations from day one and help busy travelers succeed from the start!If you have a travel tip you would allow us to share with other travel managers through Communiqué, please email kathy.ogle@atlastravel.com.
