Disruption or stagnation? Only time will tell

INSIGHT: I’ve worked in the larger travel industry for over 20 years, and during that time I’ve witnessed a great deal of ‘disruption’, as well as much stagnation.

Why creating an exceptional guest experience matters

INSIGHT: Our industry has historically suffered from a poor reputation for providing inconsistent standards of customer experience – especially when guests are in-situ. This has been highlighted when compared to the ‘competition’ – hotels. However, the good news is that this issue is improving rapidly.

INSIGHT: We can look at minimizing risk not only at a property level but also from the perspective of ‘future-proofing’ both on an individual business level, and an industry level.
