This course provides a strategic and operational understanding of the Hotel Owner's Representative role within modern hospitality investment and asset oversight environments. Designed for hotel owners, asset management professionals, hotel executives, investors, and hospitality leaders, the course focuses on protecting ownership interests, improving operational performance, evaluating financial outcomes, and supporting long-term asset value growth.
The course begins with the foundations of asset management and ownership oversight. Learners will understand the responsibilities and boundaries of the Owner's Representative role, analyze hotel management agreements, explore fiduciary responsibilities and ethical decision-making, evaluate market positioning and competitive sets, and strengthen stakeholder communication between owners, operators, and brands.
The second module focuses on financial oversight and performance analytics. Learners will interpret hotel performance reports, identify operational inefficiencies, understand benchmarking and STAR reports, evaluate labor cost management practices, optimize GOP and EBITDA performance, and strengthen budget evaluation and negotiation capabilities.
The course then explores capital expenditure and lifecycle management. Learners will distinguish between maintenance and value-enhancing investments, manage reserve replacement planning, evaluate renovation return on investment, conduct property condition assessments, and oversee procurement and FF&E management processes.
A dedicated module focuses on sales, marketing, and revenue strategy oversight. Learners will evaluate sales pipeline performance, analyze digital marketing ROI, participate effectively in revenue strategy discussions, assess brand utilization effectiveness, and identify opportunities for ancillary revenue growth across hotel operations.
The final module addresses risk management, ESG, technology oversight, and long-term ownership strategy. Learners will strengthen compliance evaluation skills, understand ESG principles in hospitality investment, evaluate operational technology systems, prepare for due diligence and disposition processes, and examine future ownership and asset-light investment trends within the hospitality industry.
