Webinar: COVID-19 And The Hospitality Industry

The COVID-19 crisis has been extraordinarily disruptive to the hospitality industry. Employers have had to slash expenses across the board and make major staffing cuts. Unfortunately, many of the individuals affected by layoffs and reduced work hours live paycheck to paycheck and do not have adequate health insurance. Making matters worse, the industry's current struggles are likely just the tip of the iceberg. As the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, many firms are struggling to develop HR plans and action steps for mitigating the negative consequences of this crisis.

On March 30th, a panel of industry and academic experts will address some of the most critical HR priorities and operational implications of the current health crisis.

This one-hour online moderated session will feature strategic and operational insights from Robert Mellwig, Chief Culture Officer, sbe Entertainment Group, and Nigel Beck, CEO and Founder, When Labs. Bruce Tracey, Professor of Management at The Cornell Hotel School, will serve as moderator.
