The Asset-Light Strategy in the Hotel Industry. When you stay at a Hyatt, Marriott or a Hilton you are experiencing a hotel "asset-light" strategy. What does that mean? These fast growing hotel chains are focusing on franchising and managing hotels rather than owning them. Here’s what’s happening and how it benefits smaller companies. What’s Happening in the Industry Big hotel chains typically don’t own their properties. They franchise their brands or manage hotels for owners, earning fees without the hefty costs of owning real estate. By not owning hotels, these companies reduce financial risk and can focus on enhancing their brand, customer service, and loyalty programs. This strategy allows them to grow faster and more efficiently. This model lets hotel chains expand quickly worldwide. They partner with property owners who invest in building or converting hotels to meet brand standards, allowing for rapid growth without huge capital investments. #assetlight #hospitalityindustry #hotelmanagement #franchisebusiness #hospitalitybusiness #hospitalitytrends #businessstrategy #hotelinvestment #hoteloperations

The #intersection and #coexistence of #Profitability and #Luxury with #Sustainability. What a privilege it’s been to be the #host and #moderator for this exciting #panel #discussion at our Preferred Global Conference in Lisbon last week. It’s been an exciting JOURNEY for the topic of Sustainability over last several of years at our global events. Since the launch of our #mission-oriented #brand Beyond Green in 2020, it has been a #consistent central feature in our Global Conference agenda, from #Boston, to #London, to #Jamaica and now in #Lisbon, we’ve been talking about it from various #viewpoints. This year, we wanted to approach sustainability from a #unique lens, one that still keeps many of us #curious, and this is when we came up with breaking down the #barriers between profitability, luxury and sustainability. It's a #vision that requires us to #rethink traditional notions of #profit and redefine #success in terms of a more #holistic #value #creation. Afterall, enough has been done to tangibly #demonstrate that sustainability is not the #antithesis of luxury; it's the #cornerstone of a new #era of #refinement. We dared to #challenge the notion that #luxury and #conscience are at odds, proving that they can not only #coexist, but even #propel each other forward into the #future. I had the pleasure of having three astute gentlemen of #exceptional #pedigree representing multi decade #experience in global #entrepreneurship, deep sustainability domain #expertise and a #masterclass in luxury #travel and #hospitality. #Gratitude to Alcide Leali (CEO of Lefay Resorts & Residences, Italy), Hermann Elger (CEO, Forbes Travel Guide) and Jannes Sörensen (Founder, Kepler Hotel Group) for their thought provoking comments and input. Some #takeaways in #summary: 1. Embracing sustainability as a business #philosophy is the only way to create #longterm #stakeholder #value 2. When done right, businesses have successfully demonstrated that it can become a serious #competitive #edge 3. Sustainability is a journey, not a destination, with constant need to push the envelope, #innovate and #evolve 4. Luxury is being rapidly redefined by the modern-day consumer, with the #environment, #culture and #community agenda at the very heart of it 5. #Prosperity with #Purpose is #measurable, with #science, #AI and #technology, progress is being accurately #measured and #reported. Businesses need to stay away from #greenwashing 6. A potential way of solving for #greenfatigue is to #communicate about our efforts in a #fun, #experiential, #storytelling way, instead of a fact and stat overload Looking forward to continued #conversations and #collaborations on this all important way of life. Until soon’ Beyond Green Preferred Travel Group Preferred Hotels & Resorts Historic Hotels of America | Historic Hotels Worldwide #believeintravel #staybeyondgreen #proudlypreferred #thepreferredlife

Wellness that works indeed. One of the things I truly admire about working in wellness is our industry's openness to collaboration. It's one of our greatest strengths. Citius are a shining showcase of this – by bringing experts together, merging their skills, experience, networks and ideas, they are creating truly innovative injury recovery and wellness services. By working as a team, we can accomplish far more than any one person could alone. The result, we can make a far greater impact, and improve the quality of more lives. This is what matters, this is why we do what we do.
