Women in Hospitality: The Balancing Act
Dr Sowon Kim | March 11, 2019
Dr Sowon Kim The conflict generated from managing work and family is real. For half a century, the primary focus of research on this topic was driven by this potential conflict. Still today, female leaders reveal what seems to be a trade-off between career and children. One of the most powerful women in the world - former CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi - shared and advised when stepping down as CEO from PepsiCo last October: I've been blessed with an amazing career, but if I'm being honest, there have been moments I wish I'd spent more time with my children and family. Make the most of your days and make space for the loved one...

Where are the Women?
John Hendrie | May 19, 2016
by John Hendrie We in Hospitality certainly have a glass ceiling, more like tungsten-formed heavy duty plastic – where one gets bounced rather than welcomed into the fold. Just look at those Hospitality services which relate career moves and openings. Women are mentioned in such "major" roles as Spa Manager, Sales and/or Marketing, Revenue Manager, or Human Resources executive – nice support positions rather than heady line assignments. These are all potential steps to the positions which really count in our world - Operations and General Manager postings. Shame on us, Hospitality. We can do better. If women can now be on th...
