A hospitality manager wears many hats. They are leaders, problem-solvers, and motivators. Their main goal is to ensure the business runs smoothly and guests leave happy, which in turn makes the business profitable. In a Nepali hotel, a manager might need to coordinate with a trekking agency, handle a guest’s medical emergency, and ensure the kitchen has enough fresh vegetables from the local market, all in one day.
