Even the most experienced executives make these mistakes:
1- Booking the cheapest flight, not the smartest one
2- Treating Business Class as a “perk” instead of a performance tool
3- Scheduling back-to-back meetings with no arrival buffer
4- Ignoring recovery time after long-haul trips
5- Underestimating the cost of disruption
Business travel isn’t about getting from A to B.
It’s about protecting:
• Energy
• Decision-making
• Presence
• Outcomes
Travel should support leadership performance – not quietly undermine it.
Smart travel planning isn’t indulgent.
It’s strategic.
