Nearly every business is evaluating how to be more environmentally
friendly.
This is not lost on corporate travel managers who are increasingly
looking
for way to proactively account for their environmental impact and reduce
their carbon footprints.
Being more environmentally conscious is not just a trend as corporate
travel
buyers are now evaluating all aspects of travel management and policies.
In
line with this, they are looking at ways to do business with
green-oriented
companies and be more eco friendly in their travel practices.
However, environmental issues may be at the forefront of the industry,
there
is still a lack of consensus and standardization. Measuring carbon
emissions
from travel-related areas requires credible, auditable processes that
allow
conversions into dollars and validation that any carbon-offset programs
are
effective.
Join Business Travel News for this live, interactive Web Seminar,
sponsored
by Amtrak, and hear from industry experts regarding how your company can
incorporate a more environmentally friendly travel management program.

| View Now |
The success of a comprehensive travel management strategy rests on the
effectiveness of travel buyers to communicate clearly with both
travelers and senior management. Corporate intranets, e-mail newsletters
and wireless alerts can help you give employees access to the right
information to aid them in making good business travel decisions that
comply with corporate travel policy. They also enable you to measure
traveler satisfaction through surveys and complaint-resolution options.
Such communication strategies don't happen overnight. They need to
evolve and comply with each individual company's internal business
processes.
