Why 8th Method?

8th Method was created to bring together hospitality expertise, commercial strategy, industry collaboration, and thought leadership under one platform.

Over the years, I have seen that every hospitality business faces unique challenges. While there is no single solution that fits every organization, there are common principles that help businesses build stronger foundations and achieve sustainable growth.

Through advisory services, collaborative projects, and original publications, 8th Method helps hospitality businesses navigate opportunities, strengthen commercial performance, and prepare for the future.

Krisztina Duggal

My background is in international hospitality sales, with experience spanning global account management, franchise and independent hotels, strategic partnerships, and business development.

Throughout my career, I have worked with hospitality businesses of different sizes and ownership structures across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. These experiences have provided valuable insight into the opportunities and challenges facing today's hospitality industry.

I have held leadership roles across hotel sales, corporate housing, and hospitality organizations, helping businesses strengthen market presence, build strategic partnerships, and create sustainable growth opportunities.

My experience also includes large-scale international projects such as the Dubai International Film Festival, where I managed travel and accommodation operations for hundreds of invited guests and coordinated partnerships with leading hospitality brands.

Looking Ahead

Hospitality continues to evolve, creating new opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and growth.

Through 8th Method, my goal is to contribute to that evolution by supporting hospitality businesses, sharing practical industry knowledge, and building meaningful partnerships across the hospitality sector.

I believe that successful businesses are built through strong relationships, practical experience, and solutions that can be successfully implemented.
