On July 16-17, 2026, Students from the MBA Online Program in Next Gen Hospitality Business Leadership, Dusit Thani College, enrolled in the Seminar in Next Generation Hospitality Business Leadership course, recently embarked on an educational study visit to Aman Nai Lert Bangkok and GOAT Bangkok. The field trip provided students with hands-on learning experiences outside the classroom, offering key insights into world-class business operations and bridging academic theory with real-world practice to prepare them as future industry leaders.
During the visit, executives from both organizations shared their strategic visions, management practices, and approaches to elevating customer experience, a core pillar of the premium hospitality sector. The sessions highlighted unique business models, creative strategies, and competitive positioning in today’s rapidly evolving market.
Aman Nai Lert Bangkok, an ultra-luxury sanctuary by the globally acclaimed Aman brand, students explored the art of high-end hospitality, personalized service, and holistic wellness set within the iconic historic Nai Lert Park. The property seamlessly blends contemporary architecture with rich Thai cultural heritage, serving as an exceptional model of combining local identity with international luxury standards.
Meanwhile, GOAT Bangkok, a 1-Michelin-starred contemporary restaurant led by Chef Tan (Pakorn Kosiyabong), alumnus of Dusit Thani College, students learned about culinary innovation and sustainable practices. The restaurant is renowned for combining local seasonal ingredients from across Thailand with Thai, Chinese, and Western techniques. Chef Tan and his team also showcased their commitment to zero-waste management, local sourcing, and in-house herb cultivation. It was also awarded the Michelin Green Star in 2026.
This study visit gave students a valuable opportunity to engage directly with industry leaders, analyze emerging market trends, and see practical applications of leadership and service innovation. The experience equips them with the knowledge and vision needed to become sustainable leaders and entrepreneurs in the global hospitality industry.
