Re-humanising Global Mobility

From compliance to connection. A new era of talent management.

SilverDoor - Building 7, Chiswick Park, London, W4 5YG
4th December 2025 - 1pm to 5.30pm

The current mobility model is not sustainable.

A diverse, tech-savvy workforce is re-evaluating its priorities. Meanwhile, organisations struggle to fill vital international roles. 

Together, this piles even more pressure on Global Mobility teams who are already contending with shrinking budgets while navigating increasingly complex compliance.

Against this growing mismatch between business needs, employee demands and operational constraints, GM must strike the right balance of human centricity and technological efficiency.

 

It's time for GM to re-evaluate our own priorities

With the advent of AI, technology offers unprecedented opportunities for automation and efficiency. Simultaneously, it risks removing vital human interaction at the expense of understanding the unique needs of your international colleagues and their families.

If Global Mobility is to be a key driver of your organisation's Employer Value Proposition, it is essential to find the right mix of technology and humanity.

 

From compliance to connection

RES Connect London will explore how to balance the use of AI and automation to offer an increasingly human-centric approach to international mobility.

  • Through an interactive workshop, you'll discover the critical moments, emotions and decisions your colleagues and their families face throughout an international assignment.
  • You'll learn how to enhance the employee experience and deliver long-term value by integrating your mobility programme into a clear Employee Value Proposition.
  • Guided by a panel of senior mobility experts, you'll examine the balance between technology and humanity and investigate how to align key stakeholders with the new mobility landscape.
  • And you will meet and speak with a wealth of mobility professionals from multiple industries, to share knowledge, experience and solutions. 

Hosted by SilverDoor, RES Connect London is your chance to optimise and re-humanise your mobility programme, ushering in a new era of global talent management.
