Pre-decision services increase the probability that employees will accept an international assignment and minimize the risk of failure. From the employer’s perspective, this service reveals concerns and issues prior to the relocation that may be solvable while minimizing costly policy exceptions. The assignee gains from learning about the destination location and sharing their concerns, which may be alleviated through counseling and suggested options to overcome personal obstacles. Our program begins with an in-depth needs assessment to learn about the assignee and their family.
