What role should tour operators play in ethical tourism development? Is it worthwhile considering how to make tours more accessible? And what key challenge will tour operators face in 2023? This week, Hannah chats to Ewan Cluckie, founder of Tripseed, a Thailand-based tour operator. In a fascinating conversation, we talk about the transition that digital travel trade marketing has undergone during the pandemic and the silver lining that Covid-19 has presented to smaller tour operators. Plus, we learn about Tripseed's development of accessible travel products, and how it mapped out the accessible facilities which Thailand has to offer.   Along the way, we return to one big issue again and again - how can tour operators move away from a less extractive form of tourism, to one where local voices are heard and respected.

Jeannette is with Alex Gisbert Co-Founder and CEO of Fastpayhotels, innovators in B2B hotel distribution. As a fast-growing business who now work with 30,000 hotels around the world and in 78 countries Fastpayhotels have shown that entrepreneurial spirit and innovation is  the way to grow successfully on a global stage. As someone who pivoted from the corporate space to his own innovative start-up he explains why the details and being authentic make the difference. Alex and Jeannette also discuss the importance of integrity, your network and understanding that the things that don’t work out are always opportunities to learn and move forward if you are prepared to work hard.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Going through your cost ledgers line by line is the way to understand exactly where the money goes in a company. You can do a Masters IN business or DO a Masters AT a business, resulting in Alex turning around and selling his family restaurant chain to Pizza Express Learning from the grassroots up makes all the difference to be credible as a leader in a family business – from bottle washer, to waiter to being able to work the bar. You have to work your way into situations. Creating empathy with suppliers builds huge bridges and opens doors, criss cross your career into interesting conversations As a CEO you are broadly looking at 3 areas costs, profit and brandApproach of I don’t need to know the details, just make it happen Take risks, there always has to be a better way of doing things The right mindset is vital to understanding that even if something doesn’t work out it’s a learning opportunity. If you don’t think of failure as failure but as an opportunity to learn you can always move forward. As you progress in your career, you build confidence in taking risks and gain comfort taking even bigger risks as you progress. People worry about what they may lose instead of what they might gain, which often means they never get going in the first place. Globalised growth is really hard to do The use of language is hugely important when you are trying to globalise a business. Jargon and idioms can be easily misinterpreted and you can alienate people whose first language is not englidh overnight so you have to watch out for that. You can never underestimate the cultural differences, diversity and the importance of understanding the different ways of doing business around the world. Understanding details makes all the difference. Having a supportive partner in your life and in your business, that backs you all the way helps massively in making those big leaps into the unknown. Just go for it and do something that will make you happy! It’s about giving it a go - you have to work hard with integrity and professionalism. Setting up a business isn’t easy but it’s worth it – from remortgaging the house to ramping up credit card debt You can only regret what you do, you can’t regret what you don’t do, so just do it. Your reputation and integrity are everything and people make decisions to work with you based on it despite which big companies you have worked for. Never try and be two personalities – take your personal values and traits to work with you everyday.
