Global mobility programs enable companies to send employees around the world, but they also come with a significant environmental footprint from travel and relocations. Companies like Siemens are putting sustainability at the forefront of their global mobility strategy. In a recent The View From The Top show, we were joined by special guests from Siemens - Meike Geiken and Jonathan Keag to discuss their strategy.

Relocating to a new country can be an incredibly stressful and complex experience for employees.

Among these shifts, the growing trend of international commuter assignments has been particularly noteworthy. If you're unfamiliar with the concept, commuter assignments refer to a work arrangement where employees operate in a country different from their usual place of residence for a defined period, perhaps a portion of their working week, returning home for the remainder. These arrangements have grown in popularity, largely as a legacy of the pandemic-driven need for flexible work solutions. But what do they entail, and how can companies optimize them? Let's dive in.

These three individuals were nominated by their peers as "Top 100 Community Champions" for the meaningful work they do to support others, both inside and outside of their companies.
