Master Leading Hospitality Innovation

As the world around us changes constantly, we must adapt and navigate through these changes. For hospitality, this requires a new style of leader - creative and innovative leaders who think of hospitality, not as a particular industry, but as a concept that operates across all sectors and businesses. Also changing, in an increasingly digital world, is that our genuine human experience is getting lost. After all, it is this human experience that lies at the heart of what is memorable, but it is naturally also what builds quality employer brands and helps businesses grow.
