 Relocation Dust-up at the EuRA Conference!May 18, 2012 I should first say that All Points gets a lot out of the EuRA conference. It is truly important to the industry. Some of the most important conversations take place there. We are grateful to it. And this dust up is an important part of that conversation. OK, it wasn’t guns drawn at dawn, but there was a whole lot of tension at the EuRA conference in Stockholm this year, between RMCs (Relocation Management Companies) and DSPs (Destination Service Providers), and it was a tension that did boil to the surface at times. If you think you aren’t interested in a fascinating struggle between Relocation Management Companies and Destination Service Providers, read no further. This blog breaks all rules about appropriate length and for that we are sorry.  Top 5 Difficulties for Repatriating CanadiansApril 25, 2012 This topic mainly addresses Canadians returning from US assignments, or those that relocated on a more permanent basis, but now are returning as part of a job offer. Many of the top 5 difficulties can apply to repatriations from other countries, but some have a unique cross-border flavour. OK – also – it is actually the top 6 mistakes, but apparently that makes a less effective title. Lump Sums – Indicators of Valid Cost Cutting MeasuresApril 13, 2012 It is sometimes nice to see that Lump Sum programs can validate good cost cutting decisions in regular defined benefit relocation policies. It is kind of like a “common sense barometer”. Unfortunately I am more used to seeing Canadian corporations creating capped relocation benefits in an ad hoc manner, not anchored to any Canadian relocation context except for predictable expenditure. Building a toaster and relocation servicesApril 5, 2012 In the great Douglas Adams book, Mostly Harmless the hero is transported (hey, we could even say relocated) to a distant planet which is technologically primitive compared with Earth. Top 6 Challenges Relocating Expatriates to CalgaryMarch 28, 2012 Global assignees face many challenges when relocating to Calgary. This occurs despite the fact that Calgary is going to be one of the most important Canadian destinations in the foreseeable future. It can offer an incredible lifestyle experience for the expat family, but it also has its challenges.
