Hi Ayushman, Hospitality is a skill that is key in all sectors with no barriers. Private banks have relationship managers for customers who are expected to be hospitable, MNCs need Key account managers with the skill sets, Facilities need administrative incharge who can be face of the unit and ensure cohesive departmental relations. So, you would gain the Skills of Customer relations, Relationship management or Hospitality. Leaving apart the core departments of hotel such as F&B service and culinary which are hard skilled with more action on the floor ; Front Office, Housekeeping, Reservations, Revenue department within the hotels domain are more soft skill based roles to pursue.
