In February in London we had several small Think Tanks focusing on Distribution, Revenue Management, Service Operation, and a Think Tank for Hotel Management Companies.
We will do a fifth Think Tank this year taking place the day before ITB at the Sofitel Berlin Kurfürstendamm on Tuesday 8 March 2016. It will focus on the new role of the Sales Manager. We have set the following title for the Think Tank:
What does the Profile of the Hospitality Sales Manager 2020 look like?
The newly established HSMAI Region Europe Sales Executive Advisory Board and a few other invited guests will do a small Think Tank around their thoughts on the profile of the Hospitality Sales Manager 2020. They will give you insight on their plans, thoughts and goals for the future of Sales in Europe, and we invite a few guests who can share their thoughts with us.
