Abstract

This paper reports findings of a first exploratory research on how travel managers (TM) assess risk in the business travel industry. Firstly, literature review allows identifying the function of travel management as well as the role of the TM whose main mission consists in taking into account risk in its various dimensions (financial, physical, performance risk, etc.). Secondly, an exploratory qualitative study based on a sample of 10 TM illustrates how they effectively deal with the specific risk of travelling within their company. The main results of our research reveal the difficulty for them to assess risk and also suggest some levers for potential action.
