EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Marriott Hotel’s strategic risk management plan was developed throughout this
report. An essential goal of the hotel’s strategic risk management plan is to minimise the impact
of an interruption of normal business operations on its employees and assets while maintaining
the continuity of mission-critical operations. The framework for business risk management is
used to develop a hotel’s risk and opportunity management strategy. This document demonstrates
Marriott’s business risk scale level, which is currently very high and almost certain likelihood.
On top of that, the risk policy and the risk registered are also mentioned in the report. The report
also indicates that Marriot has an 89 score in the business risk score category. To address the
current risk and issues, the author recommends Marriott develop complete customer service and
take steps to address the issues mentioned in the risk register regarding political, economic,
social, operational, environmental technology, and legal.

environment for the growth of the hotel and the travel industry in general. Marriott’s top three
stakeholders, especially took care of in their reports, which play a crucial role in driving this
business to success, are s, Customers, Owners and Franchisees and Associates. Customers have
footprints as they stay in franchised hotels, and their experiences evaluate the business’s success.
Marriott is a well-known franchiser in the hotel industry. Entering the franchise segment is a
profitable strategy decision (Franchise Direct, 2021). Marriott will need support and
collaborations from other associates to gain the milestones in the business’s success. For
example, they usually joined airlines and travel companies to discuss global travel issues and
trends (Marriott International, 2015).

workplace. They understand the organisation’s desired culture, the expected behaviours, and how
to achieve both.
It will be crucial to support the tourism industry and Marriott business as it moves through
the stages of recovery to take into account and implement various policies. International
coordination of border openings, the definition of common standards, and support for workers
will be critical in the early stages and significant expansion of testing availability. As the industry
adjusts to the new normal, the hotel should think about policies that encourage travel, make
coordination more manageable, and help workers upskill while rethinking the workplace, among
other things. Governments can strengthen environmental protections, engage more closely with
local communities, and create and implement a new workforce vision in tandem with the private
sector as the sector improves its resilience through growth. When it comes to economic recovery,
better coordination among government agencies and between the public and private sectors will
be the crucial ones.

7. Report conclusion
In conclusion, Marriott Hotel is a successful enterprise with a strong sense of culture and
philosophy. When it comes to events that have had a lasting impact on Marriott’s business,
COVID-19 has surpassed both the aftermath of September 11th and the financial crisis of 2009. It
will profoundly affect its operations, resulting in a complete reversal of the situation before 2020.
The impact on Marriott’s business will be felt for some time as COVID-19 spreads across
different regions. Besides the risk from force majeure like Covid-19, the risks from other legal,
economic and technological factors need to concern as well. Implementing a risk plan will help
this business improve and enhance the situation, adjust the currently high-risk score and
problematic issues.
