Many consulting assignments begin with questions rather than predefined solutions.

How should this hotel be positioned?

What truly differentiates the property from its competitive set?

Is the current guest experience supporting the desired positioning?

Where is value being lost between the brand promise and the actual operation?

Should the hotel add more experiences, or make the existing ones more meaningful?

How can F&B contribute more strongly to the overall hospitality concept?

Is the commercial strategy attracting the guests the property actually wants?

Are marketing investments compensating for a positioning problem?

Does the physical product support the rate the hotel wants to achieve?

What should change before investing further in design, communication or new services?

These are the types of questions I help owners and management teams investigate before determining where change or investment can have the greatest impact.
