Concerns surrounding economic uncertainties coupled with increased US immigration fees are leading companies to problem solve with their immigration partners in new ways to design mobility and immigration policies to effectively manage and reduce costs.
Join our interactive session as we examine strategies related to green card processes, current employee concerns, upcoming presidential election impacts, and relocation policies.

- Haseena Enu, Partner, Fragomen

Closing Panel Discussion:
Is It Time to Rethink Global Mobility?
Thursday, May 23: 2:55 pm - 3:45 pm CDT
Speaker:
- Haseena Enu, Partner, Fragomen
Traditional Global Mobility is increasingly being allied with talent strategy – so should we simply rename it ‘international experience’?
- As we see a rise in non-traditional mobility models including virtual assignments, extended business travel and contractors – how can you utilize these and keep track with finite resources?
- Does immigration provide the answer to skills gaps – and how can you review and evaluate your immigration program, processes, concerns and goals?
- How can you address operational efficiency and business critical needs whilst developing the talent needed now and in the future?
- Are your recruiting and talent management processes and workforce planning fit for purpose? What is best practice?
