Captains of travel industry to attend TTI Executive Forum
An Executive Forum is planned by the Travel Technology Initiative to enable senior management to explore the industry’s most pressing business process and technological issues.
The invitation-only event in December will use ‘Open Space’ methodology where delegates set their own agenda for the day.
Delegates will be seated in the round to explore issues that are of true concern and then break out into separate meetings to debate the issues in more detail.
The day will end with delegates voting on which issues need the most urgent attention. Invitations are due to be sent out by TTI in four to five weeks time.
Beaumont House in Windsor will be the venue as TTI seeks to set its agenda for the coming years, to ensure its projects address the real needs of the industry.
General manager Mick Mott said: “It is very important that TTI’s project work remains focused on the issues that are of most concern to travel companies.
“We are inviting the senior captains of the travel industry to the Executive Forum in the expectation that they will be able to give voice to those matters that TTI urgently needs to address in its project work.
“The outcome of the day will be a remit from the industry to set-up TTI working parties to tackle the industry’s concerns. TTI is a co-operative organisation and so the working parties will be made up of managers from the travel companies themselves, facilitated by TTI to move the whole industry forward. TTI will be helping the travel industry to help itself.”
