Interactive Session - Faciliated by the RMAPI Committee Members
"Mid-Level RM to Leadership?" Is there a normal, or 'best'', career route for those working in the mid-level in Revenue Management to reach Leadership positions?
Where do the leaders in Revenue Management come from? Are they Statistics, or Operations Research Graduates working they way up in RM, and do they reach leadership positions, or do they come from outside Revenue Management - perhaps from operational backgrounds in Hospitality Tourism and Travel, or from the wider business sector?
We are putting together a panel a wide range of career histories, to discuss this topic, and to also take questions from the audience.
