The Humility of Leadership: A Lesson from a Hotel Boss in Phoenix 🍽️🚀 During a recent trip to Phoenix for grocery shopping, I decided to have some biryani at a hotel restaurant. To my surprise, I noticed the hotel’s manager—someone who would usually be seen in a more senior role—was actively working as a server. He was serving food, clearing tables, and handling the billing, all without any sign of pride or pretension. Intrigued, I asked one of the staff members about him, and they confirmed that he was indeed the hotel manager. Despite his high position, he was hands-on with the daily tasks. His approach was simple: no job was too small for him, and by working alongside his team, he stayed connected with both his staff and guests. His leadership was not about showing off his status but about being genuinely involved in the work, earning him deep respect from everyone. Key Takeaway: True leadership is not about titles or authority; it’s about humility, dedication, and the willingness to work alongside your team. The most impactful leaders lead by example, showing that real success comes from actively participating in the effort, no matter your position. In what ways are you leading by example in your own work or personal life? #Leadership #Humility #LeadingByExample #WorkEthic #EmployeeEngagement #CustomerService #Dedication #Management #ProfessionalGrowth #Inspiration #Teamwork #WorkplaceCulture

I'm tired answering people who assume Hotel Management students are just Chefs? 🍽️ ( Comment if you found this relatable ) As a Hotel Management student, I'm often met with the assumption that I'm training to be a chef. 😒 But the reality is -- our role encompasses so much more: → Leadership skills : We're groomed to manage diverse teams, ensuring smooth operations across various departments. → Business acumen: From marketing to finance, we gain comprehensive knowledge to drive profitability and growth. → Guest relations : We master the art of creating exceptional guest experiences, from front desk management to personalized services. →Event Planning : We learn to organize and execute events ensuring every detail is perfect. → Sustainability Practices: We're trained in eco-friendly initiatives, making sure our practices support a greener planet. That's it, for today ! Ps. What other misconceptions do you think exist about our profession? Pss. Let's break the stereotypes together! #Hotelmanagement #Hospitality #Leadership #training #chefs

This February marks 25 years of starting my professional journey and I had the joy of celebrating this milestone with a special colleague of my yester-years. Chef George George was our Executive Chef at the pre-opening team of the Trident Cochin, The Oberoi Group. I met him at Cochin yesterday and to celebrate and recount our memories, he treated me to a lovely meal, leadership lessons and abundant kindness, at the Trident’s Travancore Restaurant. I have an indelible memory of a leadership action he had taken, during the time I’d decided to leave the hotel, to pursue my further education. Chef George had requested me for a meeting to seek feedback. Here I was, with about 2 years of work experience and he wanted to know anything he could enhance about his work with his team of Chefs. Soon after, he went on to become Executive Chef of the Oberoi Grand at Calcutta, and led the leadership transition of staff across the property, shaping the new face of front line employees, in an exemplary style. Here are 3 highlights from our conversation, that I’d share with anyone who seeks to get better at leadership: 1. Learning comes from unexpected experiences, and especially as leaders, it is valuable to leverage feedback as a source of learning. 2. ⁠Feedback is a gift, and as a leader seeking feedback from the team, making it psychologically safe for the giver, makes a huge difference. 3. ⁠If you lead with genuine intent to get better every day, your simplest of actions are remembered, even 25 years later! The conversations and calls we made to our colleagues from those times, led us to joyfully making plans for a team reunion this year, to celebrate 25 years of our hotel’s opening. This phase not just launched careers for a nearly 100 member team, it is recounted as one of the times of our careers when we learnt what it was like to be led well and to lead well! #TeamTTCO #25YearCareerMilestone #LastingLeadershipLessons

"Dear Restaurant Managers, I see you. Even when the long hours feel endless, when the challenges pile up, and when it feels like your hard work goes unnoticed—you are seen. Your leadership, dedication, and heart are the backbone of every great dining experience. When things get tough, remember that you’re making an impact. You’re building teams, creating memories for guests, and ensuring every detail is in place. Even when it feels like no one is watching, your efforts are shaping the success of everything around you. Stay encouraged, keep believing in yourself, and know that the value you bring doesn’t go unnoticed, even in the quiet moments. Your hard work matters, and it makes a difference every day.
