HOSPITALITY, LEISURE & TRAVEL

Hospitality, leisure and travel companies have experienced significant disruption in recent years. Peer-to-peer networks such as AirBNB have grown rapidly, increasing competition. Social networks and review platforms have given voice to customers with both positive and negative experiences. Owners and operators of hotels, resorts, restaurants, clubs and tourist attractions face diverse challenges relating to changes in employment regulations and relations, business operations and management of personal and property risks.

While the market dynamics are shifting and digitization of customer engagement and key processes are being transformed, success is still driven by the fundamentals on which the industry was built. Leaders that focus on delivering high levels of customer service, building and maintaining brand awareness, maximizing revenues (occupancy and rate management), investing capital, managing guest loyalty, utilizing human resources and using technology to effectively market and manage inventory (such as rooms, seats, tables and vehicles) are able to thrive in this changing landscape.
