Historically centred on operations and service delivery, it must now evolve to shape culture, grow talent, communicate meaning, and give both teams and guests a reason to care. Today’s hospitality leaders are no longer just managing venues; they are designing relevance, emotional connection, and purpose. By 2030, Gen Y and Gen Z will hold over 60% of leadership roles in hospitality, yet 88% say they would leave an organisation if leadership values did not reflect their own. Experience-led venues outperform transactional ones by 2.3 times, and employee belonging now outranks salary as the strongest retention driver. We are not facing a skills shortage. We are facing a values shift. This session explores how leadership must transform for 2026, 2030, and 2036. Using insights from INSEAD, CGA, MPI, industry white papers, and global interviews, we unpack four future-focused leadership behaviours: Sensemaking, Talent Cultivation, Adaptive Influence, and Future-Creating Leadership. This is not a toolkit. It is a research-driven, commercially relevant, human-centred conversation about how we lead, grow, and build hospitality’s future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeaker: \u003cbr\u003eLauren Mote\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLogistics \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeminars will be hosted at the Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans and will range from 60-90 minutes.
