When I think about the hospitality industry, I think of glamor, style, affluence, the who’s who crowd, beauty… all things that inspire awe. So, is it very glamorous to work in the hospitality industry? Let us see…

I remember seeing a tourist having her lunch at the restaurant of a 5 star restaurant and thinking that if the staff dared to look like this (crumpled cargoes, untidy hair, sleepy rumpled look), they would be kicked right out. Hmm…

How about the role of manager? Is it glamorous? Hardly. Like all things that have an outward glamorous appearance, the behind the scenes story is a lot of stress, a lot of hard work, and a going-crazy outlook. Running a hotel or resort is similar to other management jobs – possibly more challenging. So, if you are upto it, look at these online Hotel and Hospitality Management degrees.
