Managing Business Results | HSMAI University | Live Seminar

Sep 21 - 23, 2008
Grand Hotel Amrâth Amsterdam
Amsterdam, The Netherlands

This seminar is designed around the renowned hotel management simulation called HOTS (Hotel Operation Tactics and Strategy). This simulation course has been offered as a core management course to major hotel chains and as upper level courses at noted hotel schools such as Cornell, UNLV, UMass, and Penn State. HSMAI University is the only professional association to present the course to the public.

Widely recognized as the world-wide standard for management development in the hospitality and leisure time industries, the course is designed around dynamic, state-of-the-art, hands-on techniques. Course lessons are immediately applied to a computer-based virtual hotel, in real time, and in a head-to-head competitive environment. Participants will take over the management of a failing property and devise and implement a business plan that returns the hotel to full market contention.

Participants will strengthen management skills in:

  • Targeting and implementing priorities that drive business results;
  • Using financial statements for critical decision making;
  • Driving revenue by aligning the hotel to the market positioning statement;
  • Implementing strong revenue management fundamentals;
  • Creating timely and cost-effective sales programs;
  • Analyzing the market and financial feasibility of revenue-producing investments;
  • Using a “total hotel-cross functional” lens to more effectively implement business decisions.
