You Were Taught Tourism Is About Travel.
It's About Power

It’s a $11 trillion system of power, margins, and middlemen.
If you don’t understand how it works, you’re losing — even when you think you’re winning.

This Is Not Another Hospitality Book

This one explains the system behind it.

Inside, you’ll understand:

  • Why the industry feels confusing (it’s designed that way)

  • How money actually flows in hospitality

  • Where middlemen take control — and how to reduce dependency

  • Why most professionals stay stuck (even when working hard)

This isn’t motivation.
It’s clarity.

Get to Know Me

The Author

Pablo Valente was born in La Plata, Argentina. He played rugby at Club San Luis, badly, but enthusiastically; graduated in International Business and left for Europe in the late '80s with basic English and a suitcase, landed in Amsterdam, and the adventures began.

After travelling and working across Europe, he began his formal career at The Ritz-Carlton. With a Master from ESADE in Barcelona and Executive Education in Sales & Marketing at Cornell, he took his knowledge to other prestigious brands. Led pre-openings. Turned around failing F&B operations. Rebuilt teams under pressure. Stabilised businesses while lifting profits, without the guests ever realising how close the whole thing was to falling apart.

He also teaches Hospitality leadership and F&B Management at Barcelona Executive Business School, where he was awarded Lecturer of the Year three times in a row, and Le Cordon Bleu in London.

Pablo lives with his family in Kent, UK and serves as Director of Food & Beverage at The In & Out, one of London's most prestigious private members' clubs.
