Earlier this month (12 June) the Institute partnered with workforce collaboration software company Planday to launch their YouGov survey of hospitality managers and staff to find out how prepared they are for Brexit and what impact they think it will have on their business and jobs.
The media coverage from the launch was highly successful, with a total number of 42 pieces of both online and broadcast media. Our chief executive Peter Ducker FIH took part in a total of 13 radio interviews with stations such as BBC Radio Scotland and Jazz FM, with a reach of over 2.4 million people.
There was a total of 29 pieces of editorial coverage, including Press Association, the selective newswire service which feeds the British media, alongside online coverage in the Independent.
The survey received strong pick-up across the hospitality and HR trade media, such as The Caterer, Big Hospitality, Hotel Owner, Hospitality & Catering News and Boutique Hotelier, some of which included insights from the Planday Brexit Survival Guide.
The coverage did not stop at just the UK, as the research was picked up globally in the US, India, Indonesia, Germany, South Africa, France, Sweden, Portugal, and even included an article in Welsh.
All members will receive a printed copy the Brexit Survival Guide with their copy of HQ Magazine this July. The guide is packed with smart tips on recruitment, retention and staff engagement.
