There's always an element of 'experience' with employees that is an intangible – working with VIE – they see 1,000's of students through the travel experience in France on a regular basis and it is an extremely positive experience for the students that get to go. Vistas in Education helps students travel to France and get these valuable life experiences. But why travel?

Why does travel make a big difference with employees?

1. People need to be more disciplined and dedicated if they've traveled.
2. People learn more skills on budgeting effectively.
3. People that travel learn how to negotiate and learn better non-verbal skills – and communication skills.
4. Traveling helps people become better problem solvers.
5. Travelers learn how to handle different kinds of stressful experience better
6. Travelers are less frightened of different cultures.
7. Travel helps people recognize that the world doesn't end with them – that they are part of a world community.

In short - if your employees have had the opportunity to travel, there is an incredible amount of good that it may help stoke in their personalities and frame reference. If you are an employee and haven't had the chance – these are some great reasons to do it at some point.
