Unit 3: Diving into the Details
Who knew that learning about how to manage a hotel or restaurant would feel so much like a game?! By now, we have mentioned many of the different “pieces of the puzzle” that make up hospitality management. Even though it seems as if we have connected quite a few pieces together already, we are really just breaking into this puzzle! Our next few pieces all relate to the details of running a hotel. These are the puzzle pieces in the box that have lots of tiny little features drawn upon them—the ones that might take a while to fit into the whole. But never fear! We are going to flex that leadership muscle and dive right in to discover how to fit those pieces into our overall picture and form the foundation of our hospitality organization.

Unit 5: Restaurant Operations
Just when you think you’ve connected all your hospitality puzzle pieces together, you realize you forgot about the restaurant expansion pack that goes along with it! While this expansion pack is optional, and doesn’t necessarily accompany every hotel, it’s still important to be familiar with. While we know that not every hotel has a built-in restaurant, it’s a common addition to many hotels and is something you should be ready for. Let’s roll up our sleeves, fire up our taste buds, and get back into it! A manager’s job is never done!
Unit 6: Marketing the Restaurant
You are now a pro at setting up restaurants and know what it takes to get that restaurant up and running. What we need to do now as a hotel and hospitality manager is keep that restaurant running! We want to keep our seats full of customers and fill their taste buds with flavor! To try to wrangle the crowds in, we are going to use marketing and sales tactics just as we did with our hotel, but in a more restaurant-focused way. There’s only a few more puzzle pieces on the table. Let’s snap those into place to complete our hotel management puzzle. We can see the finish line!
