Beyond the Arrival

Only 6% of companies track what happens after relocation. K2's new research challenges the mobility industry to stop measuring arrivals and start measuring lives.

What truly defines successful relocation today?

Success in mobility is often measured by completed moves, costs, and filled roles. But the real impact begins after relocation — in the lived experiences of talent and their families. At K2, we’ve stepped back and listened — to clients, industry voices, and global teams. The result? Research designed not to close the conversation, but to open it.
