Group Moves
The prospect of a group move brings a mixture of anticipation and anxiety to employees and their families. Reducing Stress and Increasing Acceptance Rates
Sally White & Associates’ group move services reduce stress and increase acceptance rates by demystifying the move process. We accentuate the positive aspects of the group move opportunity by providing information on career and personal life concerns. In addition, we foster a sense of community among the group members that carries through the relocation to the new work assignments.
Pre-Move Services
In the pre- or post-decision phase, our services can be customized to meet the needs of any group — large or small. Organizations that are currently providing spouse/partner employment assistance and employee/family community connections research services often choose to enrich their standard program to increase acceptance rates. Other organizations seize the opportunity to add career and family support services to their relocation policy.
Services include:
Surveys to help identify employee and family needs as well as critical issues. We develop a detailed report that provides the employer with concrete data helpful in designing programs to increase acceptance rates.
- Participation in “share fair” venues with other service providers or provide one-to-one consultations introducing spouse/partner and family assistance benefits during the pre- or post-decision phase.
- Customized workshops for dual-career spouses/partners that cover effective job search techniques and strategies as well as targeted employment transition research.
- Targeted research for individuals and families on vital personal and lifestyle issues.
- Community-specific Web sites that could include detailed employment and career resources, resettlement information, and helpful area Web links.
“To my Sally White & Associates consultant I was never just ‘one more person’ in a large group. I was the focus of her efforts. She tuned in to all my concerns and suggested creative solutions. With her help, I finally relaxed about the entire relocation process.”
