Drawing on data from thousands of U.S. properties, they reveal how operators protected profit despite a 15% revenue shortfall, and why agile labor management became the story of the year. Lindsey also shares what this means for 2026 planning, from grounding budgets in reality to building more responsive, data-driven operations.
