8.45 - 10.00 Reporting Systems - Making the most of your MIS
View Presentation: Felicity Meyer
View Presentation: Yvonne Skerritt
View Presentation: Dawood Tagari

If you could have a Rand for each time someone said 'I WISH we could have an all encompassing, user-friendly MIS', you would be very wealthy indeed. The fact is - Until such a system is developed, we need to learn how to make the best of what we've got. In order to do so, we need to understand the flow of data, the impact that the different sectors have on the data, and the various frustrations that exist. This three-part presentation will look at the issue of reporting systems through the eyes of the three industry sectors and will give you advice on how to make the most of your current system.

Presenters:
Felicity Meyer, Independent Business Travel Analyst - Catalyst Travel Management & Training
Yvonne Skerritt, Sales and Distribution Manager - Virgin Atlantic Airlines
Dawood Tagari, IT Director - Carlson Wagonlit Travel, South Africa

10.00 - 10.15 Questions and Answers

10.30 - 11.00 The Impact of Black Economic Empowerment on the Travel Industry
The Travel Industry in South Africa is in need of further and greater transformation when looking at BEE. In early 2005, the Tourism BEE Scorecard was released providing the focus required to assist in this transformation. Industries covered by the scorecard include the accommodation sector and the travel distribution sector. But what does BEE actually mean for our industry and how is it going to affect us and our organisations?

Presenter:
Anitha Soni, Member, Tourism Knowledge Group Pty Ltd.

11.00 - 11.15 Questions and Answers


11.15 - 12.15 Ethics - Round Table Debate
It has been said that one man's negotiation is another man's blackmail. With so many seemingly grey areas in the travel and meetings industry, it seems that relationships sometimes hang in the balance when trust and ethics are questioned. Are ethics the same for everyone? Is there room for differences of opinion? What constitutes unethical behavior as opposed to shrewd business practices? Share your views during this interactive Round Table session.

Fabio Lenci, Avis Rent a Car
