Delivering world-class luxury hospitality experiences to a new generation of travelers
01
Challenge
One of the leading luxury hospitality chains sought our expertise to address a critical gap – what did new luxury consumers seek? How to equip managers with skills and tools to meet these new demands?
Our objective was clear: to provide the company’s general managers with key insights in Aesthetic Intelligence, provide them with tools to understand the evolving tastes and aspirations of their guests, and create a framework for providing more personalized and localized experiences, while continuing to honor the brand’s deep heritage.
Key challenges included:
Inconsistency and confusion as to how the global brand could be adapted to the local markets
Disconnect with the values and aspirations of travelers in our increasingly diverse and multicultural market.
02
Solution:
We created a year-long cultural transformation program to broaden the skills and elevate the understanding of luxury among senior management.
Content and format was customized to meet the company’s needs and a special focus was put on meeting new luxury demands in the luxury hospitality sector by embracing authenticity, personalization and sustainability
Hands-on projects guided participants in formulating strategies for enhancing their own properties
03
Impact:
- 100+ General Managers participated in the program
- The project formed the basis of new customer-centric strategies for key properties around the world.
- Several of the hands-on projects were implemented and replicated.
“This was such an incredibly unique and interesting way to learn more about my fellow colleagues! The assignments require you to be very honest, specific and even vulnerable about how your experiences in life have shaped your aesthetic tastes.”
