  • On this episode of New Tricks we're joined by Heather Byron, SVP Services at Alliants. Whilst historically technology hasn't been the best of friends with hotels, the tide is turning as hotels enjoy the many benefits of being able to deliver exceptional experiences to customers with the added bonus of driving revenue and building loyalty, enabled by some cracking tech.

    Staff are also reaping the benefits of using technology to delight customers and acting as valuable advocates to their current and future employees.

    All that plus personal plunge pools, whether we could collectively buy half of Accor, and why we only podcast when it's sunny.
