13 sleep hacks every business traveller needs To know

Whether you like it or not, travel is becoming an increasingly important part of business and industry success.

Business Travel On The Rise

Meetings Today recently reported that businesses are spending more on global travel each year, with the 2016 forecast set to reach a whopping $1.3 trillion. With certain industries becoming truly international, the need to travel abroad for engagements like meetings and conferences continues to grow.

All of this global travel adds certain stresses and strains to employees that perhaps didn’t exist at quite the same level a few years ago.

For example, instead of attending a meeting a couple of hours drive away and returning later that day, a couple of days have to be scheduled to make the journey.

This means there’s a lot more to think about; such as flights, hotel booking, working on the move and preparing for the actual business once you arrive. 

Working on the move can be particularly difficult. Without your usual workplace set up, it can be tricky to stay productive when working off a laptop combined with intermittent wifi and plenty of potential distractions.

This post from The Muse has a number of interesting ways to keep productive when travelling away on business.

Sleep is another thing which gets majorly affected when travelling away for work. Staying in hotel rooms the night before an important meeting can be disorientating, to say the least, and then there’s the potential issue of jet lag.

An increasing number of us are travelling both within our country and abroad for business engagements.

Business Travel on the Rise

The Business Travel Magazine reported that UK business travellers alone spent over £5.8 billion heading abroad in 2014, a rise of a staggering 30% on previous years. All in all, business travel is increasingly important to a number of UK industries.

Even with the aid of calling and conference apps like Skype, it’s still very important that we meet with business peers, clients and partners to talk face to face to further our success and learn more about our industries.

For anyone who has travelled for a business engagement, the whole experience is very different to jetting off on a relaxing holiday.

There is a great deal more to consider other than organising flights and hotel rooms. The majority of businesses will expect you to do some level of work between destinations, you also might have to prepare for a presentation or do some level of research ahead of a conference.

It’s fair to say that all of this responsibility while travelling can make business trips quite stressful, but they don’t necessarily need to be.
