...Strayer university | Providing Quality Service | | | | This paper outlines methods, strategies, and tools in the hospitality industry to deliver the “wow” factor and enhance the guest experience. | Providing Quality Service The guest can be involved in several ways to provide quality service which includes being a consultant, marketer, co-producer of the experience or a manager of the service providers and systems (Ford, Heaton, & Sturman, 2012). When the hotel industry takes an assessment of the guests experience using surveys to give feedback on their stay or create small focus groups on how to improve their services, the guests becomes a consultant or expert. When the guests have an experience whether good or bad, they instantly become a marketer by word of mouth, or social site review. This is a very significant marketing tool that is orchestrated by the guest and must be managed and addressed by hotel management. Likewise, the industry can also use guests in co-production which is when guests become participants in the production and service delivery. This might involve having the guests self serve at a buffet, elect not to have their sheets changed or participate in a green program. If the guests are allowed to co-produce the experience, then it can increase the quality of service and at a lower cost. One service standard that the hospitality industry uses to meet customer expectations is when the guests make their initial reservations. A...

...struggle to make it through the disorganized mess of our endless sleeping bags, cardboard boxes, and luggage, but I am motivated to travel through the mountains, pushing away some sticky substance, for it means only one thing: camp. I reflect on my first time going to camp. I was eight, young, afraid, and joined by the hip to my twin sister Madison. From the moment we were born into this world we have been separated by only eleven minutes. Eleven minutes that tend to mean the world to a child. Our parents decided that we needed a change to this monotonous routine. A change that would make us grow as individuals. After countless hours of internet research, numerous calls to other parents, and many emails about logistics, my parents decided to send us to a camp in Maine called Camp Med-o-Lark. Despite the frightening nature of this new experience, I had my sister, and that was all I needed. After many ‘how much longers,’ three hours in the car, five hours on a plane, and another six hours in a car, we arrived at the somewhat mysterious town of Washington, Maine. Surrounded by New England saltbox houses with white paneling, the deciduous forests now vibrant with green hues, and muggy summer breeze caressing my cheek, I grabbed my sister's hand and began to mentally prepare for what camp would be like. As my family pulled onto the camp road, I saw a green and white sign, paint peeling, at the entrance of the camp. Behind it lied and old, red trolley and a building reading camp office...

...A Closer Look At The Work Of DH Lawrence Throughout the work of DH Lawrence there is the common theme of the relationships between men and women. In these three stories we explore the uncertainties of romantic love. All of the characters discover that they have not seen the other as they truly are but rather as an idealized and impossible halucination. In Elizabeth's case in Odour of Chrysanthemums she realizes the truth of her relationship with her husband Walt when she is faced with his death. The cold room magnifies the feeling of their distance, and when she compares Walt's mothers response to her own she knows she has not loved him or ever really seen him. Hilda reveals to Syson that he never could accept her how she truly is, that he could never love her if he really saw her, and this is why she broke things off with him. Hilda shows off the antique chair she has found, and Syson is suprised that she would like something like this. He begins to notice Hilda may not be the person he thinks he knows. She shows him the scissors that she found hidden in the chair, and has him try them on. She is pleased with herself when Syson's fingers fit into the scissors perfectly, and claims that she suspected they would. She is telling him that he needs to cut off this attatchment to her. In Shades Of Spring his wife's past is unveiled before him revealing the reason for her distance and coldness towards him, and also a women he did not see before. He feels she does...

...Assignment 3: Book Review What led you to choose this particular book from the list? The two books I have chosen from the list provided are Boundaries written by Dr Henry Cloud and Dr John Townsend and the book titled Shame and Grace written by Lewis B Smedes. I had previously read the Boundaries book in 1997 when I was 27 years old. The book was recommended to me by a valued friend. I found the book to be both challenging and helpful to my personal growth and realized that it was a great tool that I could use, finding it to be practical to my needs. I learned to use these new tools that were discussed in the book in my life; through the use of modelling healthy boundaries to my son, as well as with friends and other relationships. So I thought re-reading this book would help me to identify areas that could be improved upon. I am aware that I am sometimes inconsistent in maintaining my boundaries with particular people. The topic of boundaries has always been a topic of particular fascination as they are so important in developing and maintain healthy relationships. I really struggled choosing my second book; I looked at many on the list and even started to read a few. I then decided the book titled Shame and Grace, written by Lewis B Smedes was easier and quicker to read. As my due date on my assignment was soon, a choice needed to be made, so I knew that I would be cutting it too close, if I kept on procrastinating. Which sections of the books material were particularly...

There have been many changes, additions, and improvements during this time. Adventurer Ministry has shown huge growth as well. Youngsters in this age group are full of energy and get excited about being a part of an organization that is designed to expand their view of their world and strengthen their relationship with God, Mom, and Dad through ways that are so much fun. The roof over Adventurer Ministry is supported by several strong pillars. You hold in your hands one of them: the latest updated manual covering all 83 currently accepted Awards for use around the world. There is of course, one small problem: This area of Adventurer fun is not a static field of possibilities, it is a constantly growing—maybe almost exploding—source of activity. Therefore even at the time of this edition’s printing, there are already more Awards being...
