Last week I went to Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee for a visit, I had a chance to shortly interview a staff named Julie Davis. As a student majoring in hospitality management, it was such a great opportunity for me to gain some insight into the tourism and hospitality industry. I started the conversation with general questions, for example, describe her typical day at work, which reasons to work in hospitality, or what influenced her career choice. As a resort and convention center, Opryland provides inclusive and diversified accommodations as well as a wide range of services and facilities. Thus, there are so many different areas such as rooms, food and beverages, events, bar, golf, and fitness and different people in different areas certainly have different typical days. …show more content…
There are several reasons for her to choose hospitality as her career path. Specifically, she loves meeting people, she loves an international environment, she loves travelling, and she loves the fact that every day is different, every day presents a challenge. In addition, I also asked her some questions about negative aspects of hospitality and her career advice. As she said, hospitality career would demand an awful lot of time, long hours, and traveling leading to her no-routine life. She finds this unpredictability quite frustrating but she also enjoys it as well. This career has given her loads of opportunities to network with people, meet amazing people, and go to amazing places. It has also given her an air of independence, which allows her to do things on her own. From her own perspective, the importance to make success in the hospitality career is working hard, having fun, and focusing on the things that she can influence and she can
My group previously visited the Sheraton Hotel for our first interview with the front desk manager and it went very well. We decided to keep with the same hotel for our next interview, but due to a last-minute cancellation from the housekeeping manager we were not able to complete the interview. Due to this situation, I will be talking about a whole different hotel - G6 Hospitality. The name G6 Hospitality refers to the hotel brands – Motel 6 and Studio 6. I chose to G6 Hospitality because it is a well-known company that I wanted to know about more in-depth. From all my research, I have gained a lot of insight on what G6 Hospitality is all about.
As a business owner it is important to decide if you are providing service or hospitality. Service is just the deliverance of a product while hospitality focuses on the dialogue while providing the service and engaging the customer. While doing this also decide what is your main goal. In this case, Danny wanted to have success by simply having genuine hospitality. From this point on you can work on the components that help you reach your objective. As mention earlier hospitality was the main focus. This was taken a step further by inventing “enlightened hospitality.” Not only were the customers valued, but the focus was distributed on the community, suppliers, and investors as well. Making changes to your workplace may be difficult but the success accompanying it are far much more

Working in a nursing home setting often presents challenges requiring effective conflict resolution skills. In this paper, I will address five common interview questions related to nursing home care and provide my responses based on personal experiences and similar answers found through research. Question 1: Can you tell me about a time you faced a conflict and how you resolved it? Conflicts can arise unexpectedly in a nursing home, requiring quick thinking and effective resolution strategies. One instance that comes to mind is when I encountered a resident with a blood sugar level of 50, indicating potential hypoglycemia.
The learner has worked for a small business in her past. It was in Staten Island, NY and she worked for a computer repair shop. She was the one who dealt with the storefront while her boss went out on jobs to various companies. It taught her a great deal about customer service since she had not had a lot of experience with it. However, she does remember two main things; the relationships with his clients and customers were almost always personal and he would go the extra mile to deliver quality service, and the benefits were nonexistent, there was no healthcare package, no 401k, and she was paid in cash each week.

The Hotel industry not only plays an important role in the life of people but as well as the economy of the country.

“My learning experience, things I can achieve, the decisions I make, the people I meet and befriend and the mistakes I make tells me who I am now and who I will become.” As a child, this was a belief that my parents taught me and, so I grew up with it and became very devoted to follow it.
