Coming Up in the Portal

In every issue of the Portal, we invite our authors to share their experiences, success stories, learning experiences, and vision with others in the moving and forwarding industry. In addition to our regular columns, feature articles for each issue are united by a central theme. This page contains the theme, guidelines, and deadlines for the upcoming issue of the magazine and will change regularly. Our editorial calendar will give you a glance further into future issues, and the Submit Your Story page details regular columns to which you may submit articles and news, as well as our submission guidelines and instructions.

July/August 2025


The New Transferee

 

The transferee experience isn’t what it used to be. Move volumes are down, employee priorities are shifting, and transferees expect more than ever before. These changes are pushing our industry to rethink how we work and what we offer. In this edition, we’re seeking submissions that highlight how these trends are impacting your business—and how Young Professionals are adapting, innovating, and leading the way forward.

 

 

Here are some example topics for you to consider for your Portal contribution:

  • How have transferee expectations changed over the last few years, and how is your company responding?

  • What new services or solutions have you seen emerge to meet these changing demands?

  • Is the role of the Move Manager still relevant in today’s relocation experience?

  • How are companies adjusting to declining move volumes and employee engagement challenges?

  • What advice would you give to fellow YPs navigating this evolving landscape?

Contribution Deadline: June 6

Please familiarize yourself with our Submission Guidelines to ensure your contribution meets standards for content and length.

 

Please send all inquiries and submissions to Will Kohudic, Editor, at william.kohudic@iamovers.org.
