In this eye-opening episode of Talking Tourism, host Tracy Mallett chats with Steve Wiggers—Managing Director of SCALA The Training Company and leadership trainer—to break down what AI really means for Tasmanian tourism operators. Far from the doom-and-gloom headlines, Steve offers a practical and empowering take on how artificial intelligence can be used as a helpful assistant—not a threat.

Recorded live at the 2025 Tasmanian Tourism Conference, Steve explains how even the smallest operator can save time, reduce admin, and enhance their guest experience by using everyday AI tools. Whether it’s crafting a marketing campaign, building a customer persona, or generating social media content, Steve outlines real-world ways AI can free up your time so you can focus on what matters most—delivering memorable visitor experiences.

He also shares how operators can get started with simple steps, such as asking AI tools to help write itineraries, generate customer service responses, test new ideas, or create staff rosters and training plans. Most importantly, Steve emphasises the value of keeping “a human in the loop”—using critical thinking and personal connection to complement the tech.
