What If Shakespeare Were a Hotel General Manager?

Explore how William Shakespeare’s understanding of human emotion could transform hotel management—from creating memorable guest experiences and storytelling-led marketing to empathetic leadership and adaptable operations.


In previous exercises in reflection and analysis, I have explored how historical figures such as Napoleon, Julius Caesar and General Patton might have managed a hotel. Each, with their distinctive leadership and strategic abilities, offered fascinating perspectives on how they might have transformed the hospitality landscape. Napoleon, with his boldness and strategic vision, would have focused on expansion and operational efficiency. Julius Caesar, with his charisma and ability to earn people’s loyalty, would have emphasised relationship-building and guest loyalty. And General Patton, known for his decisive, energetic leadership, would have been relentless in his pursuit of excellence and operational discipline.
Now, I turn my attention to a figure who is no less intriguing, yet entirely different in nature: William Shakespeare.
