🏨 India is building hotels faster than it can build the people to run them.
India’s hospitality industry is entering a massive expansion phase—but there’s one challenge hiding behind the growing room count: talent readiness.
With thousands of new hotel rooms coming up, especially across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, the real question is:
Who will run them?
The industry is facing a shortage of trained professionals, high employee turnover, and a training infrastructure that hasn’t expanded at the same pace as hotel development.
The solution isn’t simply hiring faster.
It’s about training smarter, building talent locally, and making workforce readiness part of the hotel opening strategy.
As Krishna Shantakumar, Director & Co-Founder of 95HM Learning Solutions (Adevo), highlights, the future of hospitality growth depends on one critical factor:
People readiness.
Because a hotel isn’t ready when the rooms are ready.
It’s ready when the people are ready.
