Travel@State Day 2020


Thank you to all who participated in Travel@State Day 2020! Previously designated as Travel Arranger Day, this is an annual event open to all faculty and staff who travel or support MSU’s travelers. If you were unable to attend a session or the day, you may self-study using the presentations provided.

Navigating Change Effectively

The only thing constant is change, and change can be hard to manage if you lose your bearings. This session will provide a practical framework to help you navigate change more effectively both at work and in your personal lives. Basic reset skills will increase the likelihood of noticing when you are overwhelmed and help you quickly regain your sense of balance and perspective so you can move forward clarity and confidence.

MSU Travel Policy & Expense Reporting

Do you need help navigating MSU travel policy in the new Concur world? Join MSU travel auditors for an interactive session geared toward providing essential information for smooth Concur Expense Report processing.

Panel of your Peers

Panel members discuss their unit’s onboarding experience, lessons learned, and helpful hints. Each college and MAU took a different path to onboard their travelers in Concur. University colleagues provide valuable insight into their approach to travel policy, Concur Request and Expense processing.

How We Did It…A Study in Change Management

The MSU College of Arts and Letters was the first university college to go live with Concur Request and Expense. Prior to go live, travel administrators gained buy in from their leadership, put together a change management team, and developed metrics to measure their success. Representatives from CAL share their story.
