A few words from co-organizer Stefan Remhof
Strategic Alignment and Personal Growth
There’s nothing more frustrating than putting in the hard work, making a real impact, and still feeling like your efforts go unnoticed. As Global Mobility and HR professionals, we often find ourselves driving essential initiatives, yet struggling to translate that value into language senior leaders understand.
This workshop is all about changing that narrative. It’s not just about knowing the top GM trends in 2025 or solving problems around mobilty. It’s about aligning your contributions with the broader goals of your organization. By strategically positioning your work, you can ensure that your achievements are recognized and valued where it matters most.
When you can clearly connect what you do to your organization’s success, you not only enhance your professional growth but also become a vital part of the bigger picture. Let’s work together to make sure your efforts don’t just move people, but move your career and your company forward.
