Discovery Hospitality’s Post

🌟 What an Incredible Day with The Goring Hotel’s Team! 🌟 Yesterday, I had the pleasure of facilitating a truly inspiring session with The Goring's Heads of Departments, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to host it than at the beautiful Broadwick Soho. We explored ideas, challenged perspectives, and mapped out the future of the hotel together. We kicked off by imagining The Goring’s story five years from now—what would a magazine headline say? From there, we reviewed what’s working, shared a few laughs, and got real about the areas that we can elevate! 👏 The Innovation Stations had everyone buzzing with fresh ideas on guest engagement, service excellence, and teamwork. A personal highlight was the Cultural Jenga activity, where each block revealed what makes The Goring unique and how we can build on that foundation. The energy was contagious, and it reminded us that culture isn’t just what we say but what we all do every day. And, of course, we wrapped up by spotlighting the rising stars in the team through a Star Search speed session — recognising the people who are already making a difference and are set to lead the way. At Umbrella Training Ltd we’re not just about apprenticeships. We’re here to deliver the tailored solutions your business needs to grow and thrive. Huge thanks to everyone for your openness, enthusiasm, and fantastic insights. Here’s to more days like this! 🎉🌱 #HospitalityTraining #Leadership #Culture #Teamwork #UmbrellaTraining

Louie Banta: High Standards, Big Heart So grateful that Lucy Cheng-Dy and I were included in LJMB Training's 19th anniversary celebration held last August 13 at the Makati Shangri-la. It was a delectable night of toasts, speeches, camaraderie, games and of course, great food. The highlight was his inspiring recount of how he left a steady job in October 2004 with only 3000 pesos left in his wallet, stepped out in faith and guts with his own L&D firm, overcame the pandemic crisis that threatened to shut down his business, and revigorated the company into the powerhouse, global training provider it is today. Reflecting on his story, I came up with these learnings: 1. Never despise humble beginnings. You'll never know where it will take you to. 2. Given a choice between loving your clients and possessing great skill, go for the love. Of course, Master Louie exemplifies both. LJMB has come to be synonymous with world-class excellence. 3. Build your reputation to the point that clients chase you, not you chasing them. You won't even need a marketing budget. 4. Multiply your effectiveness through a thoughtfully assembled team that values passion, excellence, creativity and hard work. Oh, and recognize their contribution and reward them well. 5. Treat your external trainers as family, too. I am privileged to be a partner coach for LJMB's clients. Go out your way to show them that you care and don't be stingy in sharing your wisdom. 6. The dark night is the birthplace of your most brilliant strategies (yes, I am referring to 2020). 7. Harness the latest technology. Do it before your competitors do. 8. Give back. Do you know that LJMB has adopted a home for the elderly, gives free leadership training to companies too small to pay for his workshops, and offers valuable internship experience to young people? 9. In spearheading people development, LJMB's role in nation-building is incalculable. 10. The Master is just getting started. Here's to a resplendent 20th anniversary and beyond. Congratulations, Louie, Laraine Zyreen Marcelo, MPM, CSSGB-T, John Eldrine Roxas, CHRA, CSSGB-T and the rest of the LJMB team! May God further establish the works of your hands. #LJMB #greatwork  #learninganddevelopment #training
