Lately to me, it seems that personifying the demographics of various age groups for discussion purposes is being taken too far. Hotel tech companies have used generational myths to oversell the need for the latest and greatest shiny new tech toys they claim are must-haves for the rising generations of hotel guests. Hotel brands have been launched, amenities have been changed, training programs have been altered, and HR recruitment methods have been influenced — all to meet the needs of these imaginary generational groupings. What’s worse though, is that there seems to be an awful lot of what I call “generational bashing” taking place in conversations around the workforce these days. Today’s younger workers are really not that much different than previous generations. Rather than reinforcing negative stereotypes, let’s refocus our efforts on mentoring, coaching, and training them. Chances are that when you look back at your career, there was someone who saw something in you that you did not yet see in yourself, and who made it their job to mentor and coach you along. Let’s pay it forward. Read now at CoStar US: https://lnkd.in/ezbnD8XX #KennedyTrainingNetwork #Generationalism #Hospitality #HospitalityTraining

Hotels are more and more developing non-guests revenues, via membership or day-passes, opening up their coworking services. “Multiple opportunities are available, said Zach Demuth, global head of hotel research for JLL, especially for underutilized city hotels. New technologies have made it possible to provide direct connections to PMS systems, so that from the minute non-guests arrive, they are treated like guests without hotel staff having to deal with the technology themselves."  "Day-pass programs are an innovative way to generate ancillary revenue, but they are also a way to engage the local community. Day passes provide locals the opportunity to escape without going away and enjoy hotel facilities with a day-cation", says Sarah Crowe, corporate director for Twenty Four Seven Hotels, in the US, quoted by HOTELS magazine. A premium Hotels Day Passes management platform, ResortPass, works with 1,500 hotels in 27 countries and controls 95% of that market, according to Michael Wolf, for instance. Pools and cabanas are the “lead-in” for non-guest business, according to Demuth, but he believes there is monetization opportunity beyond that. "Meeting space, he said, is so underutilized, with many hotels having three or four boardrooms that can hold as many as eight people. The same can be said for co-working spaces and even, in some cases, parking, because hotels own their own garages, which is valuable real estate."  cc Veerle Donders WOJO Zoku citizenM hotels Connor Llewellyn Ryterski prizeotel Joel Hirviniemi VALO Hotel & Work The Hoxton Ennismore MAMA SHELTER Ruut Eerikäinen Schani Hotels Anita Komarek Hans Meyer
