(A version of this blog was previously posted to www.dwellworks.com/blog.)
One: Rental Markets - Rental markets in the US have been pretty wild for the past few years. Good news, a million new apartments are coming on line this year and next, and when they do, expect the cost of rent to level off.
Two: Inclusivity - Inclusivity is important and becoming better recognized in this industry. When your employees move, they want more than a checklist, they want support that recognizes their personal needs.
Three: Comfort – COVID-19 taught people to really value their personal space for safety, security, and productivity. If you are sending your employees on an assignment or extended business trip, think about a corporate apartment instead of a hotel. It’s most likely cheaper and feels a lot more like home than a hotel room does.
Four: Sustainability – Sustainability is important to stakeholders, including your employees. Make sure you ask your suppliers what they’re doing to decrease the nearly 40 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions created by global business travel every year.
Five: Local Experts – Everyone loves intuitive technology, AI, and good data. However, what people really value is a local expert who cuts through the noise and helps them with their specific needs, makes sense of competing information, and keeps it all organized. That’s why we’ve got 1,000+ local experts on the ground in cities all over the world helping people with their moves, every day.
