“The GMP is a breather from our ‘business as usual’ thinking in the hospitality industry, even for the most institutionalized hotelier. The multi-cultural environment offers a brain teaser, stimulating our thinking. The GMP paves the way for valuable future experiences within the industry and new hotelier friends for life.”

Mr. Andreas Kramer, GMP ‘07
Resident Manager
Sila Evason Hideaway & Spa at Samui Thailand
