A successful relocation depends on how well the employee and their family adjust to life in a new community.

On this episode of Relocation Leader, Zac sits down with Heather Lofton, Director of Relationship Management at GO Destination Services, to explore the role destination services play in helping families settle into an unfamiliar location . Heather explains how local consultants support employees with housing, schools, transportation and everyday needs while providing the personal guidance that online research cannot replicate. As well as why family acclimation affects employee focus, engagement, retention and the overall success of an assignment.

The duo examines how destination services have evolved beyond completing a checklist, what makes an effective local consultant and how technology can create more time for meaningful human interaction. Drawing from six relocations with her own family, Heather shares why understanding each person’s priorities can help turn an overwhelming move into a place that feels like home. Hosted on Acast.
