  • Talent Trends Study: A Future Hotel Workforce Crisis?

    Talent Trends Study: A Future Hotel Workforce Crisis?
    May 30 2024
    Hi, welcome to another Coffee Time Chat

    Today we focus on the challenges of hotel staffing and the ongoing crisis the industry faces, not only today but, more worryingly the trends for the future.

    And this is where our guests Bill Scanlon and Lorraine Sileo step in to talk us through the recent Talent Study from Strategic Solution Partners, one of our Expert Partners

    Strategic Solution Partners started the Talent Trends Study in 2019, since then it has continually highlighted the workforce challenges - many of which still haven’t been addressed effectively by the industry.

    Fewer people are entering hospitality and more are retiring earlier. For those working in the industry, they want quality of life and flexibility. The labor shortage is felt at all levels but most severely on property.

    In this discussion we touch on a number of wide ranging topics, whilst focusing in around the foreboding trends, challenges for education institutions and how much responsibility actually lies at the door of the industry itself.

    Here is a link to access the Talent Trend Study

    Really hope you enjoy the conversation

    Euro 2024 Demand Impact and What Regional Hotels Can Do?
    May 29 2024
    Hi, welcome to another Expert Insights discussion

    With Euro 2024 not far away, we wanted to look at how this tournament has influenced the hotel Sector in the key host cities and how this tournament compares to other major events such as the Olympics or Pop concerts.

    But we also wanted to dig a bit deeper and see if the match location, date of the match and the opponents, have influenced demand and pricing.

    We also explore what the regional hotels could be doing to pick up business which has been displaced due to the tournament.

    To guide us through the numbers and provide their insights, we are joined again by:
    Viet Meier of berner+becker, one of our Expert Partners
