"We look forward to supporting and participating in the GBTA convention again this year," said Mr. Steiner. "This year's theme, "Evolve", highlights how the role of the Travel Manager is changing in order to keep up with the industry pace. Travel managers are taking on many new roles and responsibilities including duty of care, procurement, meetings & events management and more. The emergence of new technologies and ongoing security risks are driving travel managers to broaden their skill sets to more effectively support their travelers. Like the Travel Manager, Travel Management Companies are also evolving to keep up with industry evolution while finding the right balance between personalization and automation to maintain time-honored service deliverables."
