Ah! Look at my little baby, @DigitalDrums (18 years old this week) she's all grown up. Look at her sharing the stage last week beside big brands like ITV, Saga Magazine, ClassicFM , Jules Verne and others as a major sponsor of the Silver Marketing Conference & Awards! #PRTraining #TravelMarketing

Really enjoyed moderating last night's Business Travel Network dinner at the Royal Lancaster Hotel. Leading players from the travel buyer, travel management companies and suppliers debated the silent crisis in the industry - recruitment of Gen Z and, to come, Generation Alpha. #TravelIndustry

For most PR agencies, lead generation can be tricky. It's not a natural trait for many #PR people. But it doesn't have to be that way. Our workshop today for the PRCA shows how to solve all that & generate more new business leads. #PRAgency #NewBusiness #NeverstopLearning

I spent a somber & thought provoking few hours at Belson Concentration Camp today. I heard lots of horrid stories and was left with one overall thought - Bad things happen in this world because good people look the other way

AI is all the rage in the travel industry right now, and rightly so. But be careful it doesn't make you lazy or sloppy, as that will impact reputation, image and even sales. Artificial Intelligence is indeed artificial, but it's not always used intelligently, my Travel Weekly UK column is out now.
