Formats that fit hotel operations
Half-day workshop
One topic, on-site at your hotel, for a focused group of your team.
Modular programme
Three sessions of 2.5 hours each, on-site or online, so teams learn without leaving operations for a full day.
Custom programme
Topics combined for a pre-opening team, a cluster of hotels or a management company.
Every workshop includes the slides and practical templates your team can keep using.
For hospitality institutes and colleges
I have delivered multi-day programmes for hospitality institutes and speak regularly as a guest lecturer. I can run any of these topics as a guest lecture, a short course or a full module, giving students real hotel finance from someone who has lived it.
The workshops are built on my four published books.
Questions hotels ask
Can you tailor a workshop to our hotel?
Yes. I use your own reports and examples where you can share them, so your team learns on its own numbers.
Online or on-site?
Both. Modular programmes work well online; hands-on topics like balance sheet reviews and menu costing work best on-site.
How is the fee set?
A fixed fee per workshop or programme, based on the format and number of participants.
