SUMMARY:Best Practice in Destination Marketing Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Announcing the 6th Sheffield Business School ‘Best Practice in Destination Marketing Symposium’ to be held on Wednesday 27th February 2019\, Eric Mensforth Building\, Room 3021\, Sheffield Hallam University\, 14.00 – 17.00. \nTo book on this event visit our Eventbrite page \nContemporary Challenges for Destination Marketing \nThe annual Destination Marketing Symposia* held at Sheffield Hallam are free events aimed at students\, academics and practitioners. This year’s symposium examines the challenges for destination marketing which relate to a range of issues linked with a destination’s external macro environmental factors\, competitive forces\, resource management\, product development\, branding\, and differentiation. Destinations are widely acknowledged as being both pivotal to the tourism system and extremely complex products which are difficult to market and manage effectively. In remaining competitive\, destinations are faced with many challenges associated with increasing visitor numbers and expenditure\, providing satisfying\, memorable experiences that link key brand values and assets with the aspirations and needs of target markets\, while enhancing the well-being of destination residents and preserving their natural capital. \n  \nOne of the key challenges associated with the scale of the product is the fragmentation of ownership and the lack of overall control which can undermine the implementation of a strategic approach to marketing the destination as an entity. As such\, destination marketing organisations (DMOs) play a critical role as a unifying force in relation to harnessing the component parts of the product\, forging partnerships and alliances and both co-ordinating and representing stakeholders. Most tourism destination products are not unique and competitive advantage requires innovation and creativity to survive and grow in an increasingly global and dynamic market\, but innovation is linked with uncertainty\, risk\, cost and potential for failure. In a destination context\, effective leadership is therefore critical for ensuring that brand values extend through both strategic relationship building and consistent communication with stakeholders. \n  \nAt this year’s symposium\, we have presentations from three eminent speakers: Dr Philip Stone from the University of Central Lancashire\, Chris Brown\, Director of Marketing Liverpool and Professor John Lennon from Glasgow Caledonian University; they will provide valuable insights into the challenges for destination marketing from a range of perspectives. Students\, academics and practitioners are welcome to attend this free event. Please reserve your place here! \n  \n* The annual symposium was awarded the 2015 ATHE (Association for Tourism in Higher Education) ‘Making the Case’ Award for a Teaching Project\, which is sponsored by VisitEngland http://athe.org.uk/prize-awards/ \n  \n  \nProgramme \n14.00-14.10: ‘Welcome and Introduction’\, Peter Schofield\, Professor of Tourism and Services Management\, Sheffield Business School. \n14.10-14.50: ‘Managing dark tourism and ‘difficult heritage’: challenges and consequences’\, Dr. Philip Stone\, Executive Director of the Institute for Dark Tourism Research (iDTR)\, University of Central Lancashire. \n14.50-15.30: ‘Keeping destination marketing relevant‘\, Chris Brown\, Director of Marketing Liverpool. \n15.30-16.10: ”Understanding the success of the North Coast 500: Scotland’s most successful tourist route’\, Professor John Lennon\, Moffat Centre for Travel and Tourism Business Development\, Glasgow Caledonian University. \n16.10-16.30: Questions from the audience and closing comments. \n16.30-17.00: Coffee and networking. \n  \nBiographies \n  \nPhilip Stone is founder and Executive Director of the Institute for Dark Tourism Research (iDTR) at the University of Central Lancashire [UCLan].
