from Hospitality Property School · host Gerry MacPherson

I'll explain why hotel employee training is important.Training can improve employee morale, business performance, help increase your profits and if you have a properly organized system, you can find the time and I don’t mean just when they are hired, it has to be ongoing.Let me ask you something. “Do you have a small property, just a couple of employees, but you seem to be doing most of the work?” or “Do you have a property running on a shoestring budget, with limited employees that are overworked?” or “Are you so busy that you cannot find the time to think about additional training for your employees?” or “Do you have high turnover?” If you have answered “yes” to any of these questions, there is no doubt in my mind you’re throwing money out the window and over the years have probably lost some excellent employees. You might be thinking these questions. “Why would I want to take on the extra expense?” “When are we going to find the time? “ “And if I train my employees, won’t they leave for better opportunities?” Training and upgrading employee skills makes good business sense. It has to start from day one, and become continual as your employees grow.

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
