}}
* '''Step 1: Visit central kick-off MS Teams April 18, 18.45 in Tudengimaja''' <br>
This meeting will give an overview of the project. <br>
Join in and participate in the main online kick-off along with other Management Teams: you will get instructions from the owner Christina Bergman or CEO Jill Jandal.
You will then receive information regarding your Team and the Game, such as:
* The team members with whom you will make up the Management Team of the hotel: the list has been made available via Teams, so you should familiarize yourself with your own Teams channel
* The team number of your hotel. This will look something such as "48EE-A01".
* Your Game is the 48sth Game in row and 'takes place' in Tallinn, Estonia, so that is why it is number 48EE.
* Your hotel. For instance, if your hotel is located in the fictitious city of Amstelburg, therefore the letter A will correspond to your hotel. Your city is located in Estonia (or any European country and city).
* Your hotel in this case will be hotel number 01 out of approximately ten hotels in your city. The other nine are your competitors. <br><br>
 
* '''Step 2: Check the website of the hotel, as it is''' <br>
Just have a quick look at the [https://www.emeraldforesthotel.com/site/ website of the Emerald Forest Hotel]. You see the 'training program', that is what you are in now. <br><br>
 
* '''Step 3: Study the 'Introduction to Hotel'''' <br>
Study the [[Introduction to Hotel]]: here you will find the 10 pages ''you need to read'' on the hotel, the history, and the situation as you will take over the management of the hotel. <br><br>
 
* '''Step 4: Study the 'Introduction Game play'''' <br>
Study the [[Introduction Game play]]: here you will find the 10 pages ''you need to read'' on what you can do as the new Management Team. <br><br>


== Corona has changed the market ==
* '''Step 5: Meet (online) with your fellow team members'''<br>
Of course, [[Corona]] has highly impacted the situation in hospitality in 2020-2022, and still does. Some changes and situations are temporary, and the industry is likely to recover from that. There will also continue to be a number of structural changes, as a result of the pandemic. A large number of [[benchmarks]] and figures are only available for the full 'normal' year of 2019. Of course, the year 2021 nor 2022 cannot be compared in any way with previous years. However, it is precisely in these times, that creativity is needed and there is room for innovation and new initiatives. <br>
Act as a team player and aim not to leave anyone behind. We know MS-Teams can work miracles, you can also use other back-channels like WhatsApp. Managing a hotel is having your team and hotel well-organized. Make sure you meet asap and work together in a professional way, and support everybody in the team to perform his/her tasks well and in time. Good management is also good team-management. If things don’t work out as planned, act immediately. In Year 0 you will make a Management Team contract.
As you will have experienced, this Game has a number of online elements, also depending on the situation. Exactly how and where to work and visit (online) lectures, you will hear from your coaches.
<br>
<u>Team File</U> <br>
As a team you will work in a shared Team File, a Google spreadsheet. You will receive this secret link. With this link, you will have access to your hotel’s [[Team file|Team File]]: the most important file in the Game. This is the document in which you need to present your assignments, formulate your future plans for your hotel, and where you will also find your results under each year. The secret link will look something like ''''https://goo.gl/L4cABC'''' and is case sensitive. <br>
Keep your link private and secret! In this Team File, you will work on:
::- Your assignments
And you will find, per playing year:
::- The revenues of your hotel
::- The profit of your hotel.
::- The business ranking of your hotel, based on your net profit.
::- The creativity ranking of your hotel
::- Feedback from your coach.
Your coach will have access to your Team File at all times. A few things to bear in mind while working collectively in this Team File:
::- Please use Chrome as your browser (will work the best, both owned by Google).
::- When you are logged in in Google (YouTube, Gmail): you will get a few more options in your menu ribbon.
::- It is real-time, with a small delay. And be aware that: The last edit counts: so make sure to agree with, which team member will do the final editing (mind the deadlines).
::- Work online only: downloading, converting to Excel etc. will always give issues.
::- You all have edits right, at the same time, in the same Team File.
::- You have edit rights in a selected number of cells, only the yellow ones: follow the instructions, do not change tabs, don't make new tabs etc.
::- Many cells have a small triangle on the top right hand: hover your mouse over it, as this will give additional information on the subject.
::- You are not allowed to change things after the deadline, or in any previous year.
::- It can be handy to install the extension "Editor for Docs, Sheets & Slides", available via [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/editor-for-docs-sheets-sl/hkakjhmommclljpfacdehochefpefhph?hl=en this link]. The extension is needed for copying / pasting information between Google files.
::- It can get busy online, on the Google servers, on your WiFi e.g. So loading might take a few seconds, if the file doesn't seem to load, exit and open it again or do a refresh (once!). For reassurance: we hardly had any problems on the 'Google side'. <br><br>


== What are the goals? ==
* '''Step 6: Join MS Teams and the Facebook group''' <br>
As the new Management Team, your main task when taking over the hotel, is to do better than your predecessors. The existing timeline and the set dates of the Emerald Forest Hotel offer the possibility to apply sound management skills and built knowledge thus far. <br>
:Join MS Teams - 48EE Emerald Forest Hotel (use your @taltech.ee mail account). <br>
The learning goals entail that you and the team:
: Go to [https://www.facebook.com/groups/3360465044212016 Facebook group of 48EE] and request to join the group. You can join with a FB hotel page or a personal account (one per team will do). This is a private group and will not influence your timeline. <br><br>
* Process and analyse a large amount of data and that you select and apply the right information that will successfully help you running the hotel;
* Work on assignments that will put into practice your developing skills, as so far acquired during the course of your studies;
* Run your own Management Team in a joyful and professional manner;
* Behave as skilled managers: dealing with uncertainties, finding solutions, and learning from your own mistakes.


Consequently, you are expected to carry out your managerial duties and deliver the following:
* '''Step 7: Preparations in MS Teams - strategy, name, logo (12-15th study week)''' <br>
* A set of assignments during the course of the Game;
Check [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WbkRvaXj7mJqxD_T4GlpFzavczEeXouUy-xI_1_KKJw/edit#gid=1028823244 Year 0 part in Team File example]. You've gotten your Team's 'secret link' with access to your Team File. So, prepare, and you can start working carefully in the Team File, as all is already active and live.<br>
* Offering a strong and clear substantiation of each of your decisions and actions;
Think of a new strategy (Name, logo, slogan, main target groups etc. see [[48EE Business assignment year 0]]. <Br>
* Living up to the deadlines in a timely and punctual way, while continue acting adequately on new situations and challenges ahead;
Find your solution for the Trade Fair in the current situation (2+2) [[48EE Creativity assignment year 0]].
* Creating a competitive position and strategy for your hotel.


== Communication ==
<h2><font color="green">The start of the module, Thursday 18th May </font color="green"></h2></b>
This platform is your main source where you can find most documentation of the relevant elements of your hotel. <br>
* ''' Step 8: General meeting 0 at 10.00'''<br>
The Game will use [https://www.facebook.com/groups/2935523383426862 41EE Emerald Forest Hotel Facebook group] as an additional platform to profile your hotel: so join as soon as possible! Be aware that management has to deal with many uncertainties, and as such you will be confronted with a large amount of information along with many challenges. Managing a hotel may not be as easy as it appears. It is all part of the Game. Your coach(es) will always be your first point of contact. <br>
Check the time slot of your City in your schedule and visit MS Teams. It might be shortly after the kick-off. If you have time, check the other tasks of this week. In this session you meet your coach, your competitors, ask questions, have a look at the assignments of this week etc. Very bad idea to miss out on this. In this session you will get your link to your Team File and will know which channel in this MS Teams 'belongs' to your Management Team. So you can 'go' to your own channel afterwards, and make arrangements within your team.<br>

== Decisions ==
Your Business decisions and supporting explanations will have a major impact on the occupancy rate of your hotel and will influence your profit, next to the impact of the pricing you choose and costs your team decides to make. The Game algorithms will process all this information and calculate and provide you with the outcome, and rank your team accordingly in a competition.
<br>The credits for this module will be awarded to you and your team, based on the assignments and the marks obtained during the Game.

Students of Tallinn University of Technology, I'm counting on you!


Jill says hello!

Organisation of the module Emerald Forest Hotel business simulation

Regretfully, meeting each other will be nearly impossible, in these Covid times. Therefore, it is essential that all of you, individually and as a team member, join in all online events as scheduled. Keep in mind that you will be performing as business managers in the upcoming sessions and throughout the week duration of this game. So, next to working on your assignments, you ought to keep your social media and interaction alive. What to do first? Take it step by step.

Preparations to be done in the weeks before Thursday 18th. of May, at noon
  • Step 1: Visit central kick-off MS Teams April 18, 18.45 in Tudengimaja

This meeting will give an overview of the project.
Join in and participate in the main online kick-off along with other Management Teams: you will get instructions from the owner Christina Bergman or CEO Jill Jandal. You will then receive information regarding your Team and the Game, such as:

  • The team members with whom you will make up the Management Team of the hotel: the list has been made available via Teams, so you should familiarize yourself with your own Teams channel
  • The team number of your hotel. This will look something such as "48EE-A01".
  • Your Game is the 48sth Game in row and 'takes place' in Tallinn, Estonia, so that is why it is number 48EE.
  • Your hotel. For instance, if your hotel is located in the fictitious city of Amstelburg, therefore the letter A will correspond to your hotel. Your city is located in Estonia (or any European country and city).
  • Your hotel in this case will be hotel number 01 out of approximately ten hotels in your city. The other nine are your competitors.

  • Step 2: Check the website of the hotel, as it is

Just have a quick look at the website of the Emerald Forest Hotel. You see the 'training program', that is what you are in now.

  • Step 3: Study the 'Introduction to Hotel'

  • Step 4: Study the 'Introduction Game play'

Study the Introduction Game play: here you will find the 10 pages you need to read on what you can do as the new Management Team.

  • Step 5: Meet (online) with your fellow team members

Act as a team player and aim not to leave anyone behind. We know MS-Teams can work miracles, you can also use other back-channels like WhatsApp. Managing a hotel is having your team and hotel well-organized. Make sure you meet asap and work together in a professional way, and support everybody in the team to perform his/her tasks well and in time. Good management is also good team-management. If things don’t work out as planned, act immediately. In Year 0 you will make a Management Team contract.
Team File

With this link, you will have access to your hotel’s Team File: the most important file in the Game. This is the document in which you need to present your assignments, formulate your future plans for your hotel, and where you will also find your results under each year. The secret link will look something like 'https://goo.gl/L4cABC' and is case sensitive.
Keep your link private and secret! In this Team File, you will work on:

- The profit of your hotel.
- The business ranking of your hotel, based on your net profit.

- When you are logged in in Google (YouTube, Gmail): you will get a few more options in your menu ribbon.
- It is real-time, with a small delay. And be aware that: The last edit counts: so make sure to agree with, which team member will do the final editing (mind the deadlines).

- You all have edits right, at the same time, in the same Team File.
- You have edit rights in a selected number of cells, only the yellow ones: follow the instructions, do not change tabs, don't make new tabs etc.
- Many cells have a small triangle on the top right hand: hover your mouse over it, as this will give additional information on the subject.
- You are not allowed to change things after the deadline, or in any previous year.
- It can be handy to install the extension "Editor for Docs, Sheets & Slides", available via this link. The extension is needed for copying / pasting information between Google files.
- It can get busy online, on the Google servers, on your WiFi e.g. So loading might take a few seconds, if the file doesn't seem to load, exit and open it again or do a refresh (once!). For reassurance: we hardly had any problems on the 'Google side'.
