Net Positive Hospitality Simulation
A learning tool for hotels to understand the connection between environmental, social and governance issues and test the outcomes of different solutions and strategic decisions.
The hospitality industry can and must accelerate the journey to Net Positive and give back more than it takes.
But what does that look like in practice?
Introducing the Net Positive Hospitality Simulation
The Net Positive Hospitality Simulation has been developed to engage and upskill hospitality leaders and students, bringing Net Positive Hospitality to life and demonstrating how you can implement the Pathway. It helps users to understand the impacts of their decisions, test sustainability actions and create a tailored sustainability action plan.
The Simulation incorporates many of today’s global challenges, including:
Labour rights
Inclusion
Staff engagement
Community engagement
Climate change
Water stewardship
Waste management
Biodiversity
How it works
Comprising four areas of focus, People, Planet, Place and Prosperity (the 4Ps), learners are tasked with managing a hotel for 7 years, with an aim to progress towards Net Positive, while managing the hotel’s financial performance.
Each game year, learners select initiatives to implement from a list covering different sustainability issues and relating to technical solutions, policy changes and behaviour-based programmes.
After each year of decisions, learners receive feedback on their actions and an analysis of their performance across the 4Ps, giving them the knowledge and enthusiasm to make Net Positive Hospitality a reality.
The hotel is awarded an overall standard, Starting, Advancing, Accelerating, or Leading, in line with the four stages of the Pathway to Net Positive Hospitality.
Who is the Simulation suitable for?
The simulation has been created specifically for the hospitality industry and is suitable for:
Industry professionals, including:
- General Managers
- Heads of Department
- Engineering teams
The simulation enables hotels to understand the impact of their decisions and trial their approach to implementing new ESG plans, virtually. It is our aim that this translates into more robust strategies in practice.
Hospitality students
As ESG issues become more business critical, there is a need, and an appetite, for the leaders of the future to learn how to effectively plan and implement responsible business practices. This simulation provides a practical and interactive learning experience.
