In the realm of hospitality, where guests are welcomed as friends and every stay is an opportunity to create a lasting impression, certain traits are not just desirable but essential. Hospitality professionals, whether they work in hotels, resorts, restaurants, or any other related industry, possess a unique set of qualities that transform ordinary encounters into extraordinary memories. In essence, a hospitality professional is not merely someone who checks guests in and out; they are architects of experiences, weaving the threads of warmth, empathy, and professionalism into the fabric of every guest interaction. These traits transform a simple stay into a cherished memory, ensuring that guests not only return but also share their delightful experiences with others. In the world of hospitality, these traits are not just qualities; they are the very soul of exceptional service, creating a legacy of hospitality that lingers in the hearts of guests long after their departure.

I just finished "The New Gold Standard" by Joseph Michelli, Ph.D. and it's a worthwhile journey into The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. by Marriott International guest service ethos. What stands out is the grounded approach — real stories and practical tips. Michelli unveils the inner workings of The Ritz-Carlton, offering a blueprint for organizations looking to elevate their guest experience. The anecdotes humanize the strategies, making it relatable and applicable. I recommend this book to anyone in the hospitality industry or those keen on refining their service skills. It's not just about luxury; it's about the fundamentals that create a memorable guest journey. Whether you're a business leader, manager, or simply interested in excellent service, "The New Gold Standard" deserves a spot on your reading list.

Hospitality Consultant | Vegan Luxury | A professional approach to guests' unconventional lifestyles |
This quote is so important. In his book 'Unreasonable Hospitality' Will Guidara explains the process of creating a culture through putting into shared words purposes and intentions. This is something we strongly feel. The whole evolving of our services has been focused since the very beginning in bringing a shared and committed new language into Hotels. A language that creates a common ground for the whole staff (from the upper management to the whole staff) and a comfort area of action when delivering to the guests. It's incredible how committed a whole Staff can become when there is clarity of intentions and purpose. https://lnkd.in/dAPmnjUy

I help organisations develop high-performing teams through a values-focussed, human approach to leadership | Leadership Facilitator and Coach | Keynote Speaker | Hospitality Leadership Podcast Host
I know you can relate to this! There is something about giving your all, day in, and day out to meet the needs and expectations of your guests. But that is hospitality. The large majority of us love that we can make a huge difference to our guests through our interactions and giving them what they need, often before they need it. That is what true hospitality is, and the feeling you get when your actions directly impact the lives and experiences of your guests is an amazing feeling. Not always in the moment, but on the whole - that is what makes hospitality great. Who else loves hospitality? Let me know your best memory of hospitality. #hospitality #hospitalityindustry #hotelmanagement
