Industry Expert to Examine Best Practices for Minimizing the Risks Facing Corporate Travelers Today

Annapolis, Maryland - June 15, 2010

ANNAPOLIS, MD (June 15, 2010) – iJET Intelligent Risk Systems, a leading provider of global intelligence and business resiliency services, will lead a session examining the risks, trends and best practices for corporate travel risk management programs and policies at the National Business Travel Association’s (NBTA) 2010 National Travel Forum (NTF). Specifically, the session will highlight the top 10 reasons why programs fail and how to avoid them.

Business travelers encounter numerous potential threats to both their safety and productivity while away—including transportation disruptions, infectious diseases and natural disasters, as well as petty crime, political unrest and even hotel fires. As a result, travel professionals are challenged to develop or refine risk management programs to meet the ever-changing international threat landscape.

As vice-chair of NBTA’s Travel & Meetings Risk Management Committee and President of iJET, Bruce McIndoe will share his expertise on the nuances of risk management planning for global travel programs—providing real-world examples and demonstrated practices that attendees can apply to their own organizations.

Session attendees will be better equipped to meet the rising challenges of navigating global business initiatives—gaining insight to the overall risk management process, learning how to build and assess their programs, and studying best practices for preparedness.
