Promotions

So I found this to be a very interesting thing about our hotel, everyone that is in a management position there was promoted to get to be where they are. Now this sounds like it would be perfectly natural, but when you get a lot of people into a new hotel and they are just starting to learn to do this new job for the first time, there can be a trial and error period. This has not been a huge problem but talking to the managers now is pretty funny. They were looking back on what we were doing at the beginning of the hotel and what they are doing now and couldn't help but laugh about it. All has pretty much worked itself out over time but that is something I think Starwood did not anticipate when opening this hotel. Although they did provide us with opening assistants at the beginning that were there with experience to open the hotel, but as soon as they left things changed....
