WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE A HOTEL KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Hospitality, travel and tourism is a $3.5 trillion industry worldwide Which means that an average of 5% of the world’s workforce is employed in the hospitality sector. The hotel services industry alone takes up two-thirds of this market share which equates to 3% of the global workforce.
Employment in the hotel services industry was expected to increase by 2.5% between 2010-2021 which is faster than the average for all similar industries. The demand for hotel staff worldwide is projected to continue this pattern as the business continues to improve and economic recovery occurs from the recent pandemic. There are even predictions that employment in this industry will outpace average growth rates over the next ten years.
Hotel conferences are also one of the fastest-growing areas in the industry. Over 80,000 hotel conferences are held in America each year, generating more than 500 million dollars in revenue for hotels. This number is projected to increase by an average of 3% per year.
Whilst Duncan delivers his inspirational keynote presentation to all sizes of hotels, the largest international player in this market is InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (IHG). IHG has over 6100 hotels worldwide and employs nearly 200,000 people.
In the hotel services industry, like most other service industries, turnover is very high. These positions are typically entry-level and the work is not highly specialized. Large-scale corporations such as IHG often face a constant challenge of training and development of these staff members because many inexperienced employees are coming in and out of their organizations
