Introduction
For my International Hospitality and Tourism Studies module I had to do an assignment on six different world leading hospitality companies. For this assignment I chose six different companies which are: Starwood, Hyatt, Rezidor, Hilton, Marriott and Accor. This assignment will let me learn about biggest brands in the world and how they work. At the end of this assignment I should know what kind of management programs they have and what is required to get to them. This assignment is useful to me, because I will know about biggest brands in the world, what they do, how many people they have employed and what it takes to be in their team.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. owns, manages and franchises some of the most well-known brands in the hotel industry.
