Description: Charting a Bold Path: Crafting Fit for Purpose Policies that Empower the Business and the Employee

A case study of Publicis’ successful journey to revolutionize its mobility program was presented. Publicis not only managed a large mobility program but also had extremely varied needs for mobility. A program that could work for multiple diverse business lines, locations, and employee needs was designed to offer a scalable, consistent, and flexible approach, with a focus on DE&I and sustainability goals. Attendees learned how Publicis successfully designed a groundbreaking fit-for-purpose approach to mobility.

Seemingly every global mobility program is on a journey to find the industry’s holy grail: a policy suite that is flexible enough to meet all use cases for mobility while also being structured, easy to understand, and supportive of a meaningful employee experience. Participants discovered how Publicis boldly achieved its objectives to offer just that.

Karen Welch, Senior Vice President of Global Mobility, and Morgan Crosby, Chief Strategy Officer of AIRINC, guided attendees through their journey, covering:

How to deeply understand the needs of the mobility organization
How to design a program to meet those needs
How to incorporate flexibility for diverse business units
How to introduce employee care and flexibility
How to incorporate DE&I and sustainability in the program
How to gain acceptance for a new program and successfully implement it

In this highly engaging and interactive session, Karen and Morgan shared key statistics, real-life cases, and lessons learned along the way while also polling the audience for feedback on how participants addressed these challenges. Together, the audience and speakers tackled the biggest challenges facing mobility program design, leaving attendees inspired by real cases and ideas they could implement in their mobility practices.
