Luxury Management in practice

An absolutely essential part of luxury management is hostmanship at the highest level: how do you ensure that your VIP guests feel welcome and are completely pampered? You will learn how luxury hotels, cruises, resorts and restaurants differ from companies that focus on other target groups. How do they deal with purchasing and personnel, and how do they become and remain profitable? Marketing, branding and storytelling are indispensable: how do you ensure that you are known to the right people, while still remaining exclusive?

Become a luxury manager

You will get to know this extraordinary side of the hospitality industry inside and out and will soon know what is required for a luxurious stay at an exclusive resort, a high-end event or on a private yacht. From personal butlers to dinners in Michelin-starred restaurants, you will be trained in high-end hospitality and exceptional service. When only the best is good enough, choose the best business school in the Netherlands.
