Agenda
Day 1
Welcome and Introductions
11:00 - 11:10
Welcome and introductions from the Expat Academy team who will walk you through the agenda and get everyone talking via a short icebreaker
International Remote Work: Moving from Discussion to Action
11:10 - 11:55
In a world where international remote work has become a standard employee request, many organisations have settled on similar approaches - yet implementation challenges persist. This discussion aims to move beyond the basic "can we/can't we" debate and focus on practical solutions, shared learnings, and industry standardisation. Whether your organisation is just starting out or fine-tuning existing policies, join us to share experiences and develop actionable frameworks.
Corporate Update
11:55 - 12:15
A safe space where a fellow member discusses what they have been dealing with, battles, victories, and/or hot potatoes they want off their plate. With updates from the community on interesting approaches and innovative solutions to problems, you can share your knowledge and learn from others.
Break

Refresh and return!
Supporting New Demographics: Redefining Mobility for the Next Generation
12:30 - 13:15
As workforce demographics shift, traditional mobility approaches are being challenged. From Gen Z's different career expectations to evolving family structures and dual career priorities, this session explores how mobility programmes are adapting to meet changing needs whilst maintaining programme sustainability and effectiveness.

Testimonials
An Expat Academy membership is just what every Global Mobility professional needs! It has so much to offer ranging from networking, learning about several topics and GM trends, benchmarking and gaining different peer perspectives, to the strategic input of the ever-supportive core team who check-in regularly to help with any challenge(s) being faced.
I have personally been part of this community since 2019 and am glad to have continued to be the beneficiary of its offerings even when I switched employers.

Thank you so much for organizing the event; it was amazing! It was fabulous! I've been telling my colleagues about it and hope to attend next time with more people from Rituals. You gathered wonderful people, as always!
Kirill Aksenov
This was the most inspirational and value-added network event I have attended! Great and professional representatives from Expat Academy. Greg provided new angles and a fresh approach to common issues for a Global Mobility professional - reframing is the new black. Great participants who generously shared experiences and best praxis. I was also very impressed by Expat Academy´s content and offer. I look forward to the next huddle and becoming an Expat Academy member!
Karolina Engstrom
Thank you for organizing the first Nordic Network Huddle - and for choosing Danfoss as the host for this first session. Appreciate the perspectives you brought on the reframing of challenging mobility areas and the use of the speedometer to assess where efforts create the most value versus risk. This sparked great reflections and engaging conversations. Overall, it was a very inspiring event with strong peer exchange, and we’re glad to be part of the Expat Academy network. We look forward to continuing the dialogue in future huddles.
Uliana Tillema
The event was thoughtfully organized, and I truly appreciated the questions and insights shared. I came away with a fresh perspective, especially on how reframing our questions can better drive achievement and success in our projects
Dolly Choudhary
An exceptionally well organized and engaging Huddle. The agenda struck a strong balance between structured updates on the Middle East and open discussions about vendors, tech and policies, allowing both clarity and collaboration. The inclusion of storytelling added a valuable human dimension - bringing real experiences to life and making the content more relatable and memorable. The focus on reframing (What would Disney do?) challenged us to look at familiar topics from new perspectives. This shift of thinking encourages more innovative, solutionoriented approaches and will undoubtedly influence how we navigate future Global Mobility. Overall, it was a highly effective huddle that fostered knowledge, sharing connection and engagement across the participants. Looking forward to future huddles.
Maria Pelle Johannsen
Great facilitation and open questions driving you to think outside the box in comparison to other workshops I have participated in. The list of companies was also diverse and quite good to see new faces vs. the typical events with the DK headquartered companies that always participate in Copenhagen. Very positive.
Desislava Vasileva Chovanska-Jaegerfeldt
The event was great, good networking opportunities, and thought provoking discussions. The format was great, both with training sessions and interactive sessions. I liked it a lot.
Raluca Raducanu
Very inspiring with some fresh perspectives on the Global Mobility deliveries to bring back to organization
Teresa Vesterlund
I attended the first ever Nordic Network Huddle in Copenhagen. It was a great event with a lot of structured interaction with the other + 25 participants. After Greg had presentation a subject we were divided into smaller groups in which we had engaging short discussions about the subject, this was the set up of the day which made it very interactive. I will definitively try to join future events.
