A few weeks ago I had a hellacious travel day. The flights were actually all on time, surprisingly. But everything around them went poorly. None of the credit cards in my wallet worked. The event I was planning got delayed so I was late leaving for the airport. Security took forever and I didn’t get…
The most common length of time for a business trip is three to four days. But what happens when you are gone for longer periods of time? It requires a lot more planning and strategy, that’s for sure! One or even two month business trips are becoming more and more common. Here are a few…
