3. Where do you vacation the most often? Aruba. We love the resorts there, the people, the nice food, and the beaches even more. Great place to relax. 4. What is your favorite charity or cause? There are two types of charities we love to help: Schools and Entrepreneurship, Education and Work. Always putting in front causes that matches our values and believes, where family and society are putted in front, or actually are the ends.
7. In the last five years, what has been your most memorable meeting or convention experience and why?
Work hard, don't limit yourself to your obligations, always ask for a little more, learn from books as much as from other peoples experiences. Knowledge, experience, and skills development is a 24/7 work. 9. What is the one question do you wish someone would ask you in an interview today? Why do you think you will be a top performer in the position and why? (not to let them sell themselves, but to let them explain their understanding of what it takes to be great for the specific job, meaning that they have researched, they are prepared, and understand what has to be done in terms of approach, knowledge, behaviors, attitudes, development, day to day, and growing) We have asked dozens of people involved in hospitality businesses around the world to answer up to nine questions in this special section of HospitalityEducators.com.
