development. The following initiative which is funded in partnership with the Worshipful Company of Innholders is aimed at addressing this strategic objective.


£60,000


The Worshipful Company of Innholders/Savoy Educational Trust Management Scholarship scheme is indicative of the commitment both organisations seek to make in the very important area of developing general management potential. Effective leadership and management is critical to an organisation’s success and interestingly the ‘City & Guilds Skills in a Global Economy’


report


highlighted the fact that the success of the national economy will become increasingly dependent on the skills of those adults already working in the industry and that these skill levels will continue to rise. This scheme goes some way in addressing this issue and also those of retention and continuing professional development.


The purpose of the Scholarships is to introduce middle management in the hospitality industry to senior/general management techniques by exposure to short intensive courses of management education, thereby providing experience, skills and training not readily available in the workplace. Winners of the Scholarships can undertake a two week course at Cranfield University School of Management or Cornell University.


Those awarded a Scholarship to attend the Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne will undertake a number of modules.


Applicants for these Scholarships have to submit a written paper and if shortlisted are then invited to attend a series of interviews at the Innholders Hall. The interviewing panel includes the Chief Executive of the Trust.


For the year under review following interviews in November 2010, 19 Scholarships were awarded (2009: 16). Scholarship winners will undertake the following courses:-


Fourteen candidates were awarded a Scholarship to attend a course at Cranfield University in March, June or October 2011 entitled “Accelerated Talent Development”.


Two candidates were awarded a Scholarship to attend the ‘Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne Summer Programme’.


Three candidates were awarded a Scholarship to attend a course at Cornell University entitled ‘The General Managers Program’.
