Learn techniques on how to ensure you are creating the best plan for your boss' travel arrangements.
Travel planning can be a terrifying part of an administrative professional's job. After all, one missed detail means your boss could be sent to Florence, Kentucky instead of Florence, Italy or stranded in a foreign city where you forgot to book ground transportation. Juggling all the details of an extended itinerary can easily lead to costly and even dangerous errors if you aren't able to stay on top of everything. This topic will help you establish best practices for travel planning in your office. Discover how you can develop forms and checklists to ensure that you are carefully monitoring every step of the trip and verifying that all necessary arrangements have been made. You'll also learn how best to work with a travel agent to minimize confusion and ensure that they are as careful with your boss' travel as they are with their own. Finally, we'll troubleshoot the common issues encountered with travel planning to guarantee that your traveler returns safely with no travel horror stories to share. Make travel planning a breeze by ensuring that your boss is in the right place at the right time with the right documentation in hand.
