Ten Tips for a Successful Business Trip in
新加坡
Key tips for every beginning business traveler and a refresher list for the
seasoned pro.
- Do not waste your company's money and time. The important part of business
travel is business, not travel. You will be judged on how your handle both.
- Thoroughly review and understand your company's travel policy. You will
need to know what expenses are covered, and what you are expected to pick
up on
your own. Take a copy with you.
- Understand the restrictions on airlines, hotels, car rentals, meals, phone
calls, laundry, minibars and all other expenses. If something is not clear,
do not assume, contact your boss or human relations department to get the
answers you need.
- Connect with your corporate travel staff. These are the individuals who
book your flights, hotels and car rentals. Ask them to explain how you should
proceed
if something goes wrong . How do you make changes if you encounter delays
or problems?
- Expenses. Will you be using your own credit card or a company credit card
for your travels? If you will be using your personal credit card, know
that you may need to pay that bill prior to receiving your reimbursement
allocation.
- Understand the proceedure for cash advances and the documentation you will
need to turn in when you return.
- Get to know the staff in your accounting department. These will be the
people who process your expense reports. Ask them what they need and how
they like
to receive information, then follow their advice. They can be your best
friends.
- Do not create travel envy. Play it cool and do not brag about your trips
to non-travelers in your office.
- Buy a durable piece of luggage that can also be used as a carry-on.
- What are the business travel styles of your company? When traveling together,
what activities are you expected to take part in? Is airline seating an
issue? When should you return to the office if you arrive mid-day or off
a red-eye?
