Today I am celebrating 10 years at White Lodging, and I thought I would share my thoughts of 10 reasons I am thankful for the past 10 years.
1. White Lodging accepts me for me & allow me to be my authentic self.
2. I am seen for who I am & what I bring; they recognize my value & my worth.
3. I am surrounded by amazing people that help me to be the best version of me every day. They push me & challenge me in a way that is wonderful!
4. Gallup calls it a Q10, a best friend work. I have Q10’s in every market. When I think of them, I smile. White Lodging brought us together!
5. They invested in my development, in ME. More than anyone has ever done.
6. I have the most incredible team I work with. People I not only enjoy working with & respect, but I genuinely like & care for & in turn they care for me.
7. Did you know I sought out WL? I did. I was hoping they would swipe right too, & they did. Because of their involvement in the community & the good they did I WANTED to be a part of that. I had to.
8. I am inspired to do good be good & pay it forward every single day.
9. Culture - how do you define the culture of a company? It is not easy, is it? I can tell you this…I am home. WL is my home away from home.
10. The people, hands down. Every interaction I have, every leadership class I lead, I am in awe. I am inspired, they amaze me. They make me want to be better; & not for me. For them. Every person I have had the privilege of crossing paths with is an absolute gift. I thought today was a great day to share this.
Do what you love and love what you do. I get to do that. Every day. Today was the perfect day to pause, reflect & share that. I wish this for all of you, as well! Cheers to 10 years & to many more ahead! #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #beyourbestself #hospitalitarian #whitelodging #dowhatyoulovelovewhatyoudo #grateful White Lodging Steve Ransone Kyle Spencer Otis White Miryea Gist, MS Aaron (AJ) Brow Jean-Luc Barone
