Reality Check

Navigating Through the Storm

The global macroeconomic events of recent months will force the pace of change in the travel industry unlike any other time in recent history.  Global competition, changing technology, and a recessionary market are creating a host of new business challenges for travel industry executives.

We understand that reducing costs and increasing efficiencies are a focus for companies today, and travel and hospitality businesses are no exception.  Our travel clients around the world are trying to do more with less in every facet of their businesses.  The key is achieving this as quickly as possible without interrupting critical business operations or losing focus on the right strategic mission.

Strategy Audit

To achieve these objectives, we are providing travel company executives with a proactive way to ensure their 2009 operating plans are based upon sound assumptions and are best positioned for success.  We’ve developed a "Business Strategy Audit" specifically designed for travel companies, which includes:

  • Validate the underlying assumptions of the 2009 business plan and assess the effect of current economic conditions.
  • Validate the strategic mission and market positioning of your brand.
  • Review how the company is performing against its financial plan and recommend adjustments to enable it to improve its financial performance in the next 12 to 18 months.

Strategic Adjustments

Regardless of the size of your business or the role your company plays in the travel industry, we can ensure the results of the strategic audit are fully executed in a timely manner to bridge the gap in your 2009 business plan.
