Review There are books about the hospitality industry and even more about terrific stories of some of the great leaders and pioneers in this business. This book is not a history nor a biography. What Sean Worker and Glenn Haussman have penned is a real time snapshot of our industry on what is hopefully the waning months of the most existential threat to our survival with the global pandemic. They have captured excellent insight and true possible pivot points we must address as an industry to recover and thrive. Sean is one of the most energizing and visionary leaders in this industry and I have had the pleasure of learning at his side in more than one top performing organization. His partner in this venture, Glenn, provides platforms for today's hoteliers and other hospitality pros while being a champion for our industry and a supportive but critical journalist with great access to fascinating personalities and thoughtful interaction with leaders across all segments of hospitality. This book should be a text for advance level classes in both undergrad and graduate hotel school programs.Jim Alderman, CEO, Americas, Radisson Hotel GroupWhen disaster strikes, improvising can get you out of a jam, but it is not sustainable forever. Sean and Glenn dive headfirst into the big ideas that are reshaping the hospitality industry in the age of COVID and how hoteliers can approach change with greater flexibility and an open mind.Biran Patel, Chairman AAHOA (Asian American Hotel Owners Association)Incredible timing for this thoughtful, well-crafted book on the extraordinary people shaping the future of hospitality in new and innovative ways. But it's more than that, it's also a well-conceived toolkit helping all people learn how to embrace the innovation and adapter mindset. Read this book today.Chip Rodgers- President and CEO at AHLA (American Hotel Lodging Association)Finally, you don't have to read fairy tales of a gifted handful on their almost non-repeatable unicorn journeys but see examples from the trenches, from those, that do it every day with passion, love and dedication. Stories I can relate to as an investor and businessman myself.Sascha Hausmann - General Partner at HOWZAT ennea Group / CEO Busy RoomsWhat an insightful view of travel, tourism and hospitality, with post pandemic ideas that will benefit any service business .
