Your plans with the Hotel

Presenting your management team to Jill, Christina and your coaches. You will have to take a lot of important decisions in this preparation round. This will be the basis for all of the other assignments and decisions.

Situation

You just took over the management of the hotel. You need to take decisions on the hotel itself and on how to run your own management team. That is exactly what you will do in this assignment. This will be the capstone to your team, in all the four rounds.

Goal

Set up a basic strategy for your hotel. It is important that in all other decisions, over the years, you stick to these plans.

Task, deliverable

See your Team document, tab Preparations. In Demo Team File there is an example available of a team File completely filled after all of the rounds-years. Fill out all the section as indicated:

With mouse-overs in the cell in column B (black triangles) you will find more information.

  • Fill out your given Team Number
  • Think of an appropriate name for your hotel: very important explain why you chose this name. Make the link to your strategy. Check the internet to see what pops-up using this name e.g.
  • Give the full names of all the management team members and assign a role to each of them. If your team has less than five persons, some of you will have a double role. This doesn't affect your workload in the game.
  • Make a (basic) website supporting your hotel (you can start with a template in Wix, Weebly of Wordpress)
  • Join the Facebook group. Go to Facebook group 30EE and request to join the group. You can join with a personal or hotel page. Facebook pages now can join groups.
  • Make a Facebook (business) page for your hotel. Explain what exactly the goals are with this page. Be specific, give numbers etc. In assignment 2.1 will specifically have an assignment on this. For now, just be sure to have created the account.
  • Make a Management Team contract. You can either put it in your Team File or post it anywhere online and put a link here. Check if the link works!
  • Decide on the strategy of your hotel: explain in approx. 10 lines. Have clear and measurable goals. Look at the history size and operating review of the hotel, to be sure not to come up with really impossible totally unrealistic ideas. Use the right concept (theory) from marketing.
  • Decide on the target groups or markets of your hotel: explain in approx. 10 lines. This should be in line with our strategy of course. Use the right concept (theory) from marketing.
  • Think of an appropriate Team picture. Make the link to your strategy, so be sure the way you present your team matches the image and the chosen strategy of your hotel.
  • New hotel logo: this should reflect your strategy as well: does it tell what you are doing, your image? Is it recognizable? Explain why you chose this logo in a few lines. Be sure, again, to use marketing and communication concepts. And think of IP right (copy rights): you can't just 'steal' things.
  • Think of a new slogan. Explain why you chose this slogan in a few lines. Be sure, again, to use marketing and communication concepts. And think of IP right (copy rights): you can't just 'steal' things.

Assessed elements

  • Did you perform all outlined above?
  • Are things well-argued?
  • Are the right concepts used?
  • Is all in line with the strategy?
