The keynote speaker at the conference, Gary Marshall, is a seasoned entrepreneur with a remarkable journey starting from humble beginnings as a travel agent in Adelaide at the age of 18 years. He shared his invaluable experiences that shaped a successful career in the industry. With ventures spanning multiple locations and sectors, including the establishment of TMS Asia Pacific and Travel Daily Media, the speaker’s intrapreneurial spirit remains unwavering even as new opportunities unfold under CharltonMedia.com ownership.
Gary’s keynote: “How can you be an entrepreneur when you are working for someone else”? Well, welcome to the new world of the “Intrepreneur”. Intrepreneur’s can be and will be the game-changers of the Travel & Hospitality Industry going forward. You need to grasp the concept of the intrapreneur, an employee at an established company who has an entrepreneurial mindset. An innovative thinker with fresh ideas for growth.
Elaborating on the concept Gary Marshall said: “Intrapreneurship enables you the opportunity to utilize funding from your organisation. Intrapreneurship gives you the ability to gain greater job satisfaction, because you’re able to exercise your creativity, build your credibility, make a meaningful impact on the business and all of it within a reasonably safe environment with no risk to your own pocket.”
Sharing further insights Gary added: “All companies need Managers who will take initiative and use their intrapreneurial spirit to drive innovation and sharpen the company’s competitiveness. You have to be an intrapreneur to be valuable because a true intrapreneur is not easy to replace. Good people like responsibility, empower them, grow them”. He concluded with adding: “Most of the lessons I learned were from the TOUGH TIMES. It was these lessons that made me the person I am today.”
Attendees were captivated by the speaker’s insights and personal evolution, leaving the session empowered to tap into their own entrepreneurial potential. The conference serves as a springboard for collaborative learning, fostering a culture of innovation and growth among leaders within Cross Hotels & Resorts.
