- Expect customized services – Work and travel environment to be filled with choices. Not one size fits allTech Savvy – Quickly adopt technology, expect certain technology and use mobile for everythingSocial – Give and receive immediate feedback, use social media to stay connectedEmbrace Change – Chose novelty over comfort and are more prefer more adaptive travel policies More comfortable w/ travel – They find long-haul flights less stressful and lower hotel categories

- 2013 Travel Manager Priorities
- WHAT SHOULD TRAVEL MANAGERS DO?Allow customization where possible – introduce new tools and servicesUse mobile apps and services with guidelines – Boost compliance while enhancing travel experienceLeverage Social Tools – Create policy guidelines on social media and use to raise traveler awarenessExplore new communication channelsUnderstand needs of different traveler populations internally – Gen Y vs X vs BoomersHow you ask them to manage their travelHow they do it in the social lives
- Address generational divide head on – have older workforce work directly with millenials instead of segregationDon’t call Millenials “entitled” – They aspire for something more and are very entreprenurial. Empower millenials to come up with great ideasIntegrate consumer and customer – Millenials have a direct connection with their demographic and understand their needs
- For the WinBe brief, informative and clear – Mils rely heavily on info, take time to educate them with ‘why’ and develop communication processKnow your limits – Mils don’t like limits, empower them with the ability to shop anywhere, book anywhere, book with anybody, and book anythingEmbrace technology – “Out of office” no longer exists
