Description
Everyone involved in the vast and diverse hospitality, tourism, parks, recreation and sport arena are impacted by social, political, economic and technological changes. Just as with health, weather and local news, every day may bring critical information that affects the future of our industry and related career. In my class we will hold a debate based on what was reported in the news media on September 30/October 1, 2020 that impacts the future of our broad industry. One-half of the students will be required to provide two (2) examples of how the news items shared will benefit one or more aspects specific of the industry (PRO), while the other half of students will provide reasons the news items on that day will have a negative impact(CON) on one or more specific aspects of the industry. I was chosen to do PRO. Your response must be informed and supported by media reports (print, television, etc. posted on September 30/October 1 2020). This was a significant date because it was the end of a typical “quarter” (three months) when many companies and organizations summarize/analyze their productivity/effectiveness for that period, and based on their findings, project direction for the future. Following the Zoom debate each student will post a summary of the key points raised during the class debate (both pro and con), and conclude with the impact on my career area for the short/long term. If you can please stick with the Hospitality field that is what I am most interested in. APA format.
