Hospitality and tourism today are the most successful dynamic industries, their global importance continues to grow and ever increasing number of national economies are dependent on them. This popular and long established degree course will open the doors to a wide number of employment options. This is why it is an exciting and fascinating period in both commercial and economic world to study Hospitality Management.
I took Science subjects at the start of GCE O levels according to my parents advice, but the subject that I was interested in was Business Studies because as a child I used to fantasy that I have my own big hotel with big cars, driving in big celebrities and I thought the key to this hotels door is Business Studies at that moment because I did not have any Hospitality Management option at that time. So I switched my subjects to Business Studies, Psychology and Math during my A levels. Even though not having any background for Business Studies from O levels, I spend many hours on my academics and continued to excel in school, achieving good grades in my class tests. Throughout Business Studies, to complement what has been taught I have researched real-life business solutions and how they have been implemented, such as the responsive marketing used by Coca Cola to prolong their business cycle and sustain major profitability. Mathematics is a pivotal subject on which so many others depend. I relish the challenge of problem solving that Mathematics provides. For me, it is an endlessly intriguing subject, as the discipline appears limitless, allowing so much scope for further study and research. Studying Psychology gives me insight into human influences on organizational behavior through studying motivational theories such as the hierarchy of needs model proposed by Maslow, whilst the course work has developed my skills in collecting and analysis data in order to establish trends and draw conclusions. I have greatly improved in English Language after my GCSE’s and will be appearing for TOEFEL this month.
I have a great passion for Hospitality Management. My father is operating a restaurant in Berlin, Germany and here in Pakistan. Whenever I get time I assist him with his work, therefore I know how to manage customers and a lot about catering. Being appointed as Deputy Head Boy in the sixth form was a great honour to me. My skills were greatly enhanced by holding this position, as I would often have to listen, and respond to issues brought up by fellow prefects, and students lower down the school. Through activities such as Lunch duty, I learnt the worth of different leadership skills, and that it is important to treat everyone as an individual in order to get results. I was always keen to stay into the evening to help out at school events. Last winters I worked for successful food industry Kolson as a Sales person in an Exhibition for 3 days it was a great experience. I am a committed member of my schools cricket and basketball team, I have captained team in previous seasons which required leadership, confidence and diligence. In my spare time, I enjoy music, going to the gym and socializing. I am a regular of Financial Times, enjoy keeping up with current affairs and business news and reading variety of books, both fiction and non-fiction such as ‘Making It Happen’ (J. Harvey-Jones) where his common sense approach complements the management theories of more staid texts. This degree will equip me for my career in the unpredictable and fast moving world of commerce.
When I envision my life some years from now, I imagine two possible scenarios. In the first, I am standing in front of a boardroom of a profitable Hotel, assisting executives in solving a central challenge to their company's maximum functioning. The other image could not be more different: in this vision, I am working to my bolster my own fledgling Hotel.
I believe that my experiences have prepared me for independent university life. My social skills together with my ambition to succeed in life prove me to be good candidate for a Hospitality Management Degree. I would love to pursue a career in the field of Hospitality and I believe my choice of institutions matches my capabilities as well as my aspirations to become a successful Hospitality manager.
