STAGE 2: Video Submission (Finalist Round)
BW Hotelier’s Indian Hospitality Summit & Awards 2025
#IHA 2025
Shortlisted nominees are invited to submit a video (maximum duration: 90 seconds) showcasing their leadership journey and professional impact. The video should address the following four dimensions. Each area is intended to highlight initiatives that the nominee has personally led or conceptualised at the property or departmental level. The emphasis is on individual ownership and contextual relevance, rather than the implementation of centrally designed or corporate-led initiatives.
1. Leadership Style:
A reflection on the nominee’s leadership approach, and how it has influenced team dynamics, organisational outcomes, or workplace culture.
2. Personal Development Plan (PDP):
Insights into the nominee’s personal growth journey. This could include continuous learning, self-reflection, feedback processes, or any intentional steps taken to evolve both professionally and personally.
3. ESG Initiative:
A sustainability- or community-driven initiative led by the nominee that reflects environmental, social, or governance principles. The initiative should demonstrate local relevance and personal commitment. 4. Unique Business Initiative A distinct project or idea personally initiated by the nominee that has delivered measurable business value—be it through innovation, guest experience, operational efficiency, or revenue/profit enhancement.
Nominees are encouraged to be creative in their presentation. Videos may include on-site visuals, photographs, text overlays, animations, or voiceovers—any medium that effectively conveys the narrative with clarity and authenticity.
Videos will be evaluated holistically, with attention to:
• Clarity of communication
• Creativity and originality
• Relevance and depth of content
• Demonstrated impact
• Authenticity and personal voice
