“School” – is a source of knowledge, according to its definition. So much nobility in it!
School graduates become not only the pride of their families but also the future leaders in the areas of their studies, including hospitality management. However, for the last couple of years, the education industry propelled its own evolution and readjust to the new reality. The saying about planting the seeds and harvesting the fruits suits here the best.
Hotel Schools directly influence the industry and therefore have a great responsibility to prepare passionate graduates. The world is going through the digital revolution, which means all the industries need an upgrade. And not only in digitalization but also in fitting the people who “live and work” today. Hospitality is a highly reactive industry and it is hard, but crucial, to prepare the new generations in schools for the new trends in advance.
The logical attempt to “catch up” with the future can be kicked off with the wellbeing programs. They should be initiated already at the hotel school to foster consciousness and awaken the spirit of students. If you live through it, instead of just going through various classes, you actually grow 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡.
Let the students feel their competence through their own actions and they will become the leaders of the new era of wellness!
