Abstract: This article explores the use of design thinking as a method to develop scenario for the future of hotels.

“…The results of this study might encourage HEIs providing tourism and related courses in the UK to review their strategy in terms of course development and subsequently in terms of the recruitment of academics. Indeed, instead of exacerbating an already existing competition amongst themselves, HEIs might decide to develop service hubs, which implies that HEIs will discuss ideas in terms of products (programmes development) and come to an agreement for its marketing and provision and delivery; this can avoid unnecessary duplication and competition (Chhetri et al , 2017; Lub et al , 2016; Olds, 2007). The results of this study could also be of use for academics looking for a job, as they clearly indicate the institutions which are recruiting the most and in which area.…”

“…Así fue como el pensamiento de diseño comenzó a aparecer en la discusión general en el mundo del management y los medios de comunicación relacionados con la gestión durante la última década. Esta visión moderna del DT también abrió la posibilidad de aplicación en otros campos, como la educación y el desarrollo de nuevas capacidades (Tarabasz et al, 2018;Reis et al, 2019;Zheng, 2018;Gilbert, 2017) la tecnología (MacDonald y Elahee, 2016;Fleischmann et al, 2017), las empresas (Cagnin, 2017, Geissdoerfer et al, 2017 el turismo (Sang Lee y Young Sohn, 2018;Lub et al, 2015), entre otros.

“…Por ello, la incorporación de DT invita a una nueva filosofía organizacional, fomentando la horizontalidad, el trabajo en equipo, la democratización en la toma de decisiones. Por último, Lub et al (2015) argumenta que los pensadores de diseño parten de una ontología, epistemología y metodología diferente al resto de las disciplinas y que "aunque las metodologías están bien descritas en la literatura, los diseñadores a menudo las usan de manera implícita y refinan su comprensión tanto de la solución como del problema en paralelo. " (Roozenburg y Cross, 1991.…”
