Accommodation coach & mentor

An experienced operator helping others

Emily Stephens - Accommodation operator & founder

 My experience in the accommodation industry started over 20 years ago. Holding many management positions including running small properties in the country and as a manager of large operations in the city. Both in Australia and overseas, my whole career has been in the area of hospitality and tourism.  I appreciate the many different aspects hospitality, tourism and the accommodation industry.  As an experienced hands-on manager, I understand the importance of achieving competence in all aspects of the business. From marketing to maintenance, cleaning to customer service, I continue to learn and enjoy the rapidly changing landscape of this trade.

By providing coach and mentor sessions I can share my knowledge, skills and expertise with like-minded people. My focus is on helping providers build successful accommodation businesses and bringing their vision of the property to life. With a changed tourist economy in Australia, there is a strong push towards loving local and getting back to basics and into nature. 

Collaboration is key, I love meeting new people in the industry and look forward to creating new connections while helping businesses with change and growth.

With a passion for helping others and the accommodation industry the logical step for me was to provide a service supporting and guiding accommodation business owners and operators.
