Stakeholder Engagement Masterclass - Part 1

Stakeholder Engagement Masterclass - Part 1
10:15 - 11:15

Building on from our German Huddle in June, we will now dive deeper! Map your influence landscape and decode what really drives your stakeholders. In this interactive workshop, we'll identify all the key players in your mobility ecosystem and uncover what each truly cares about beyond the obvious. Through practical exercises, you'll learn to see your program through different stakeholder lenses and understand the motivations that drive their decisions.

Lunch

Counselling Corner

Counselling Corner
13:45 - 14:15

Influenced by attendees on the day, we will break out into topical groups and learn from each other, the experts, and if need be, we’ll get you some contacts to take away to continue the discussions further! Attendees will be contacted closer to the time to see what they want to discuss to match the content of the session to the needs of those joining us!

What to Pay Whom?

What to Pay Whom?
14:15 - 15:15

Global Mobility isn't just long-term and short-term assignees anymore! Now we have permanent transfers, new hires from overseas, business travellers, commuters, and others who we can barely find a name for! And we really want to facilitate them all in the name of being (buzzword alert!) enablers!

But how do you compensate each of them fairly, consistently, encouragingly, and all in the face of budgetary challenges?

AIRINC are here to tell you!

Perspective Playground

Get ready to have your perspectives stretched and assumptions challenged in this interactive Huddle session!

The session will leave you with new perspectives regarding GM's toughest trade-offs. Join us as we dispel one-track notions and advance as strategic, whole-minded mobility leaders!
