The services industry occupies an increasingly important position in the modern global economy. As a native of a small Asian country, I have witnessed firsthand the importance of focusing not only on customers in Asia, but also on the international community as a whole. With this in mind, I hope to study in the USA in order to improve my language abilities and become more competitive in the workplace of the future. I have decided to specialize in hotel management, and because the USA has a reputable business sector and world-renowned education system, it is the ideal setting in which to build my international experience and prepare for the challenges of my future career.
My family operates a bed and breakfast, and through my association with this industry, I have come to understand the importance of developing a successful brand. It is crucial to have a brand that can represent a company’s distinct style and portray the company’s most positive characteristics. In addition, I have witnessed firsthand how efficient HR management can enhance the quality of service and the overall success of a business. Modern businesses attach great importance to services, and many countries are currently utilizing SGS services or ISO certification to enhance their competitiveness in the market. I hope to earn such certification so that I can rise to the top in my future career and achieve the goals that I have set for myself.
In the university, I served as Vice President of the Student Union, responsible for implementing the plans and decisions of the President. This role required excellent leadership, organizational, and communication skills. When we arranged our annual Japan Week, I was in charge of planning this project, including assigning tasks to members, giving presentations and overseeing the planning and strategies. This experience was instructive and rewarding, and it gave me a better understanding of my own strengths and shortcomings. For example, in a leadership role, there are many details that require extensive training and practice, and I am eager to pursue a more in-depth understanding of such processes.
With any company, it is vitally important to create a brand and to suffuse it with meaning and value. For example, brands such as Dior and Prada have worked hard to become virtually synonymous with luxury. For my own future, it is important to learn skills and techniques that I could apply to hotel management, so that I can eventually return and work to develop my family’s company into a successful company with expanding horizons. It has long been a dream of mine to study abroad, and I now feel both confident and excited that this dream is within my grasp. The master’s program in hotel management at your school is ideal for fulfilling my dreams and goals, both personal and professional.
After completing my master’s degree, I hope to obtain practical work experience in the USA or somewhere in North America, in order to continue learning and honing my abilities. Eventually, I plan to return to my country and help my family’s business expand. By studying in your school, I hope to equip myself with greater business acumen while also learning some international etiquette and acquiring a greater understanding of international customs. This will give me a unique advantage in my future career.
