    Why Language and Cultural Training Still Matter When Moving

    To watch the video version, go to neirelo.com/allaccess Language and cultural training are far too often treated as relocation add-ons. In this episode, Zac is joined by Christina Miller and Rita Shulda of IOR Global Services to make the case that both are far more strategic than they appear. From executives trying to lead in a second language to children navigating new school systems, language and culture shape confidence, authority, and connection. The team explores how even small efforts to engage a new language can build credibility, signal respect, and accelerate integration. For mobility leaders, it’s a reminder that successful assignments aren’t powered by logistics alone — they’re powered by understanding. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    How Sharing Knowledge Shapes the Industry

    To view the video version: go to neirelo.com/allaccess In this episode of Relocation Leader, Zac Turbes sits down with Phillip Nguyen, Director of Global Client Development at NEI Global Relocation, to talk about what actually moves the global mobility industry forward—and it isn’t just process. Phillip shares what’s changed as he’s shifted from emerging markets to national accounts, where experienced mobility leaders show up with sharper questions, clearer visions, and higher expectations around reporting, visibility, and partnership. Together, they unpack why conferences still matter in a relationship-driven industry, what gets lost when those connection points disappear, and how “goodwill equity” quietly prevents service failures behind the scenes. Phillip explains why transparency is non-negotiable, how NEI approaches consultation without forcing a one-size-fits-all model, and why the best sales conversations start with asking better questions—not rushing to pitch an answer. In mobility, relationships aren’t networking fluff—they’re long-term. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Looking Ahead to What’s Next with AI: Part 2

    To see the video version of the podcast, go to neirelo.com/allaccess In this episode of Relocation Leader, Zac is joined once again by Jeremy Kedziora, AI-Endowed Chair at Milwaukee School of Engineering, and Dar Andrews, CIO at NEI Global Relocation, for a grounded conversation about where artificial intelligence helps—and where it shouldn’t replace human judgment. Rather than focusing on hype or fear, the trio explore practical realities leaders are already facing: how AI changes decision-making, what skills organizations must actively preserve, and why oversight, accountability, and judgment become more important as automation increases. We also look at how AI may reshape workforce mobility—who companies move, when they move them, and how predictive tools could reduce variability and cost—without losing sight of the human experience behind those decisions. If you’re a leader who wants to adopt AI thoughtfully, without eroding the skills, trust, and judgment their organizations depend on, this episode is for you. #ArtificialIntelligence #Leadership #FutureOfWork #HumanJudgment #GlobalMobility #WorkforceStrategy #DecisionMaking #AI #Relocation #GlobalMobility Hosted on Acast.

    Cutting Costs Without Cutting Corners with Amy Smith and Derek Gregath

    Cost pressure is nothing new in corporate relocation—but the way organizations respond to it often determines whether savings are real or simply deferred. In this episode of Relocation Leader, Zac Turbes is joined by Amy Smith, Director of Global Mobility Strategies, Policy Development & Document Management, and Derek Gregath, Director of Global Client Development, both of NEI Global Relocation, to unpack what cost containment actually looks like when viewed through a strategic lens. Together, they challenge the default assumption that reducing spend must mean reducing benefits—and explore why that shortcut frequently backfires. The trio dive into the hidden mechanics of relocation ROI: soft costs, productivity drag, family disruption, extended temporary living, delayed home sales, and the downstream impact these factors have on retention and performance. Amy brings a data-driven perspective on why benchmarking alone is an incomplete answer, while Derek draws on years of frontline experience helping companies right-size programs without eroding duty of care or employee trust. Listeners will hear why some benefits that look “optional” on paper—home sale assistance, destination services, cultural and language support—often function as cost-avoidance tools in disguise. The group also explores how industry, role criticality, company culture, and labor market dynamics should influence relocation design, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach driven by what “other companies are doing.” We reframe relocation not as a line-item expense, but as an investment decision—one where smarter process design, better analytics, and cross-functional alignment can preserve both budget discipline and employee outcomes. For HR, talent, and mobility leaders navigating economic uncertainty, this conversation offers a clearer way forward: spend with intention, cut with context, and never lose sight of the human variables that ultimately determine success.  Hosted on Acast.

    Inside the Talent Pipeline: How Role Clarity, Hiring Strategy, and Mobility Intersect

    In this episode of Relocation Leader, Zac Turbes talks with Jillian Guzda, senior recruiter at GLOMO and co-host of the Get Talent! podcast, about what hiring really looks like inside today’s global mobility environment. Their conversation pulls apart the assumptions that shape recruiting decisions—from how roles get defined to why companies routinely overlook the candidates most likely to thrive. Jillian explains the upstream issues that quietly derail searches: intake conversations that never happen, job requirements that shift midstream, and well-meaning hiring teams that unintentionally design roles no one can fill. She draws on real experience to show how early clarity shortens timelines, sharpens decision-making, and gives candidates a fair shot at showing what they can actually do. Zac and Jillian also move beyond traditional recruiting metrics by exploring the hidden ROI of non-revenue roles, the rising value of adaptable talent, and the way hybrid and remote expectations now influence relocation decisions. For HR and mobility leaders responding to talent shortages, evolving policies, or complex workforce moves, this episode offers a clear and grounded look at how hiring behavior shapes mobility outcomes.  Hosted on Acast.

    40 Years Young: Live at GPA with Love + Relo

    What does it take for a company to stay exceptional for forty years—and still feel like it’s just getting started? In this special episode, Zac Turbes joins Ben Cross of Love + Relo live from Omaha, NE at NEI's Global Partner Alliance (GPA) Summit. Together with NEI CEO Michelle Moore and NP Dodge President Nate Dodge, and other guests, they reflect on the legacy, culture, and forward motion behind one of the most trusted names in global mobility. From a 170-year family legacy to a 40-year journey redefining relocation, Zac and Ben dive into what it really means to build staying power. We unpack how companies endure, adapt, and keep reinventing themselves without losing their identity. They share stories from the early days to today’s AI-driven operations—how a culture built on empathy and excellence continues to evolve through new generations of leaders, and how technology is being used not to replace connection, but to deepen it. The result is a rare inside look at how one company balances tradition and transformation in an industry built on trust. If you lead in global mobility, HR, or business transformation, this conversation reveals the principles behind lasting relevance—and how to grow without outgrowing your values.

    What Hasn’t Changed in 40 Years—And What Must with Michelle Moore

    What’s timeless in relocation—and what truly needs to evolve? Michelle Moore of NEI Global Relocation joins Zac to unpack the constants that define great mobility programs: principled service, doing what you say you’ll do, and elevating the experience for people on the move. She contrasts those durable fundamentals with the very real changes reshaping the work: a shift from paper-saturated processes to digital, right-sized documentation, and smarter orchestration that reduces friction for clients and transferees. The through-line isn’t technology for its own sake—it’s trust, built through clear promises and consistent follow-through. From there, the conversation gets practical. Michelle explains the value of a relocation management company (RMC) in a modern context—why “middleman” is the wrong mental model—and traces how pricing and service evolved from fee-for-every-task to integrated programs that are easier to manage and measure. You’ll hear how NEI screens for culture fit and capabilities in every engagement, and how they close the loop with “fresh eyes and ears” feedback from teams closest to the client. The goal isn’t to do more paperwork; it’s to create better outcomes with less friction. Whether you’re leading HR, procurement, or a mobility team, this episode is a reminder that the most future-proof strategy combines timeless principles with thoughtful modernization—and keeps people at the center of every decision.
