The tourism industry is one of the hardest hit sectors by the Covid-19 pandemic. The travel restrictions, lockdowns and social distancing measures have severely affected the demand and supply of tourism services. As a result, many tourism businesses have faced significant challenges in managing their human resources and industrial relations.

How can tourism employers and employees cope with the changing landscape of work and employment in the post-pandemic era? What are the best practices and strategies to ensure fair and harmonious industrial relations in the tourism industry? How can tourism stakeholders collaborate and cooperate to revive and sustain the industry?

These are some of the topics that will be discussed in the MGSEB Virtual Talk: The Impact of Covid-19 on HR and Industrial Relations Practices in Tourism Industry. The virtual talk will feature experts and practitioners from the tourism sector who will share their insights and perspectives on the current and future trends and issues in HR and industrial relations in tourism.

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed unprecedented challenges for leaders across all sectors and industries. How can leaders cope with the uncertainty, complexity and disruption caused by the crisis? How can they inspire and motivate their teams to adapt and innovate in the new normal? How can they balance the needs of their stakeholders, customers and employees while ensuring their own well-being?

These are some of the questions that will be addressed in the webinar “Leadership in lockdown” organized by Malaysian Graduate School of Entrepreneurship and Business (MGSEB). The webinar will feature insights from distinguished speakers who have demonstrated exemplary leadership in various fields during the pandemic.
