Take Action 

  1. Analyze your market. Understand how your company benefits from globalism and how it benefits from nationalism, and analyze what could happen if markets shift one way or the other.
    • Every market is unique; take a step back and think about how these trends impact your company, your supply chain and the companies/guests you serve.
  1. Review what impact changes to the market would have on your customers.
    • Would this impact ability to get visas? To create jobs in new markets? To import/export? How would this in turn impact your company’s ability to serve your client base?
    • Understand the business impacts—businesses will move where the market is.
  2.  Consider globalization as a lifestyle.
    • Ensure your properties are speaking not just to domestic travelers, but also to the global audience.
    • Ensure your properties are not isolating to guests who may be traveling long distances from their homes.
