Apply the tools provided by professional organizations to explore current legislative issues and industry data, and Describe the impact of current issues affecting segments within the hospitality industry.
You will be creating a PowerPoint Slide deck (no narration required) consisting of five slides -a title slide and an informational slide for each of the following industry segments – Foodservice/Restaurant, Lodging/Hotel, Travel/Tourism, and Event Planning.
The title slide should include at minimum your name, the title of the assignment, and the due date.
For each of the industry segment slides, the content required is as follows:
Include the industry segment as a title on the slide
Identify an industry association that advocates for that particular industry -list the name of the industry association
Find the advocacy, issues, or data page for that particular association it may or may not be called by one of those names. Post a link to that page.
Identify and briefly summarize ONE issue or statistical information the association is highlighting on that page. Explain why that issue is important to the industry and why it could impact society beyond just that industry. 3 to 5 sentences is enough.
The goal is to ensure you are familiar with industry associations, how they advocate for and provide important industry statistics for their membership. Be sure the link you are providing leads to the issue you are highlighting.
Keep in mind that while you are not presenting with narration, you should design your slides with visual appeal in mind. These will be “wordier” than slides in an actual presentation would be, but they should be designed to be balanced and have a professional appearance
