A global panel of senior hospitality industry peers shares their viewpoints on the question: In response to the challenges of 2020, what is the single most important change that you implemented that you believe not only helped you get through the past year but that you also expect to maintain as part of your post-pandemic “new normal”?

Marloes Knippenberg, CEO of Kerten Hospitality, is one of the Thought Leadership contributors.
