About us
The factors (internal and external) that impact women’s career path are numerous and include; their own motivation, skills, educational level, lack of support, or equal opportunities. Another monster is balancing work and family especially due to the perpetuation of traditional gender roles. The Hospitality industry demands long hours and a great deal of crisis management plus problem-solving. This could be quite exhausting for some women coupled with different kinds of cultural norms, values, and stereotypes.

OUR INSPIRATION
Our Core Values
We would like to use this powerful platform to unite women and demand gender equality in the hospitality industry without segregating in tribe, physical attributes, or social, cultural, and economic achievements of the women in question.
We therefore have Values that guide us and help to provide direction for the type of action, behavior, and ethos of this forum.
Dignity
We believe that all people regardless of gender have the right to be valued, respected and receive ethical treatment. The word is derived from Latin dignities meaning worthiness.
Equality
Audre Lorde wrote “I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.” Equality means ensuring all people have equal opportunities to make the most of their lives and talents, and that no one has poorer life chances due to their background or status. We believe that women should receive and access the same opportunities and benefits as men.
Hope
We live in a society where people have lost hope and merely live like prisoners serving time. Hope is the feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen. We are striving to make hospitality women dream and hope for a better tomorrow by providing them with mentorship programs, career training and self-improvement skills.
Collaboration
Where there is unity and collaboration, big things can be achieved. For modern day women (and men) who understand that there is power in unity. Strength in numbers and voice are critical in driving change. “In unity there is strength; We can move mountains when we’re united and enjoy life—without unity, we are victims. Stay United.”
Appreciation
A moment of gratitude makes a difference in one’s attitude. We believe that it is not joy that makes us grateful, but rather gratitude that makes us joyful. Through celebrating success, populations not only become more appreciative of the role women play in contributing to society, but awareness and expectation is increased that women will not be marginalized, discriminated against or absent from future successes moving forward.
Respect
Equality can only be achieved if the diversity, differences and qualities of women are truly valued. Respect for others is a key value underpinning the ethos and agenda of Women in Hospitality. Respect for others and respect for self-play is an important part in forging gender equality and making progressive career growth.
Empathy
Seeking to understand others, caring for and valuing diversity, and appreciating difference are key to forging deep relationships to effect change. It's through the ability to understand and share the feelings of others that differing situations and perspectives can be grasped. Women in Hospitality calls for understanding the plight of women - the challenges faced, obstacles endured, and changes desired for an inclusive and progressive world.
