For a company that can’t give out reasonable raises and has to watch the budget if we need markers for the whiteboard or a new mouse, the senior leaders sure do travel a whole heck of a lot! I’ve seen a couple leaders go on trips three weeks in a row! Associates still need to see you on site. They need to see you saving money when we get denied after requesting a new keyboard because ours is 11 years old and absolute cr-p.

SLT has to travel. Unhappy marriages and their kids hate them.
Plus, harder to cheat on the spouse at home.
As for juniors tagging along... don't be naive.
@OP Plano Campus ACR here. Huge numbers of people from all over the country asking for visitor access to Plano the last few weeks, mentioning meetings.
They also bring all their flunkys along when traveling to do all the work.
They probably should stop traveling to all the sites because we don’t even have meeting rooms to accommodate their unreasonable requests to have a meeting with 45 people… I guess you guys are gonna have to talk to whomever handles our real estate estate and ask them to build some more room rooms! It should not be this stressful every single time we need to reserve a meeting room
Edit: associates don’t need to see you on site… they need to see you saving money after you decline their purchase for a $12 replacement keyboard!
