SUMMARY:The STIR: Negotiate for What Matters
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, September 28\, 2021 \n11:00 AM – 12:30 PM  EST | 4:00 – 5:30 PM BST \nReceiving a job offer is a big deal\, and you deserve to celebrate. But before you accept the offer\, take time to consider what you want most from this opportunity. Evaluate the offer against the criteria that are important to you\, and then negotiate to get as much of what’s important to you as you can. Don’t shy away from negotiation\, because it’s key to job satisfaction. So often\, we skip right to the celebration — and then three months into the job\, we realize that we should have asked for more money\, more vacation days\, or a more impressive title. \nJoin BAB and Chicago Booth’s Executive MBA team for a live discussion on how to evaluate a job offer and negotiate for what matters. We’ll role-play negotiation scenarios to show you what works\, and we’ll leave plenty of time for your questions. You’ll walk away with strategies for success\, pitfalls to avoid\, and resources to help you navigate your own negotiations.

SUMMARY:On the Fly Travel Update: PHL/LHR & The World
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, September 22\, 2021\n11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST \nThis is a virtual event. Pre-registration is required. A zoom link will be shared after your registration is processed. \nREGISTER \nPhiladelphia International Airport (PHL) and London Heathrow (LHR) are the backbone for international business and leisure travel\, moving passengers and cargo across the Atlantic Ocean. The global economy and society depend upon this invaluable route. PHL and LHR also serve as a springboard for connecting flights throughout the world. The pandemic upended travel and created a cargo bottleneck. Constantly changing cross border restrictions and regulations have created pandemonium. Air travel is the lynchpin for operations throughout the transatlantic corridor and beyond. More than 20 million people travel between the US and the UK every year\, delivering valuable trade\, travel and tourism opportunities. Overall trade between the UK and US is more than £200 billion per year\, and the US is the UK’s top investor\, representing 27% of all inward foreign direct investment. \nIn May 2021\, PHL and LHR signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to increase collaboration and permit greater engagement on a range of topics and issues\, geared towards reinforcing recovery from COVID-19. One of the first goals of this MoU is to safely reopen boarders and allow for renewed travel between the US and UK. \nHeadline speakers\, Chellie Cameron\, CEO\, Philadelphia International Airport and John Holland-Kaye\, CEO London Heathrow will open the program\, followed by a panel of experts from the travel\, airline\, and legal sectors. Speakers will review current regulations\, as well as provide a preview of what we may be able to expect through the end of this year as our economies navigate the recovery process. \nOn the Fly Travel Update – Bio Doc

SUMMARY:Business Travel: Resetting Expectations for a New Normal
DESCRIPTION:It’s been more than a year since many business travelers have passed through an airport or conducted a business trip\, and enough has changed to surprise even the most experienced business traveler. \nAs business travel returns\, there are added stress points from what the business traveler experienced pre-COVID. We will address some of those stress points and discuss how a traveler’s expectations can best be managed. What is being done differently now versus 2019 and is there anything new that travelers should expect in the upcoming months? \nPlease join us for a robust discussion on how the traveler’s journey may look going forward and how we can do our best to set realistic expectations as business travel returns. \nKey Questions this Session will address: \nWhat is the most proficient way to maneuver through an airport and what efficiencies have the airports put in place?\nAirport screening staff remain well below pre-crisis levels\, especially in the United States. How are airport security teams handling this?\nWhat steps have the airlines taken to help make the return of business travel less stressful? How are they addressing customer service issues while operating under normal staff levels?\n \n\n\n\nDr. Paulo Alves\, Global Medical Director Aviation Health\, MedAire\nDr. Alves bio coming soon.\n\n\n\nMarcel Fuchs\, Managing Director\, International Sales\, United Airlines\nTo learn more about Marcel click here\n\nMario Ramirez\, Supervisory Officer\, U.S. Customs and Border Protection\nTo learn more about Mario click here\n\n\n\nErika Weisbrod\, Security Director\, Intelligence & Assistance – Europe\, North\, West and Central Africa\, International SOSTo learn more about Erika click here\n\n\nJohn Rose\, Chief Risk Officer\, ALTOUR (Moderator)\nTo learn more about John click here
