Regardless of whether you work on a national, European og global basis and have a lengthy experience in management, the demand for increased competence is on the rise. The industry is changing rapidly, the market is challenging, which is why it is more important now than ever to keep abreast of developments, and continuously improve our skills and learn from others.

Mentoring is a two-way process. Not all executives are good as mentors. The mentors who are committed to constantly developing and learning themselves are the best mentors. They appreciate that the work with mentees provides learning and development for themselves too. In addition to what ever assistance you may receive internally HSMAI wants to be there for you – throughout your whole career.

The program is aimed at all age groups and levels in the industry. A pan-European mentor program working across different disciplines and companies within travel and hospitality can prove to be favorable for mentors and mentees, personally, professionally, but also for the respective companies and for the industry as a whole.

If your company is an HSMAI member you may enter the program for free, with no other expenses than transport and accommodation.

The program has been developed in close cooperation with Mike Leven, who will assist in selecting and coaching the mentors. In other words we here have a golden opportunity to learn from one of the absolute best in the field.

This will take place in Florida this fall, and again in the spring of 2019. Twice in total, included dialogue over Skype or similar platforms.

Few, if any, fascinate me more than Mike. He is one of the most prominent US hotel icons, but it is his warmth, wisdom, humility and commitment to leadership, customer service, which is quite unique, and the way he works to improve and empower those around him, that really makes him stand out.

Mike has been working internationally all his life, and is up-to-date in most areas, including politics. I have had the distinct pleasure to have him as my mentor for more than three years, and counting, but now it's time to take it to the next stage, coaching future mentors for The Mike Leven Mentor program.
