Service & Soft Skills


Do you feel that you can improve the service your team provides to your guests?

Do you feel confident that every guest of your hotel is receiving exceptional service from every member of your team?

Do you feel confident that your team is providing the same level of exceptional service to your guests when you are not there?

Has your team been trained to communicate professionally and present themselves in a polished manner?

How proficient are your front-line associates at resolving problems, creating positive experiences, and exceeding guest expectations?

Do you have a system in place to consistently evaluate your team's performance and hold them accountable for the service they provide to your guests?



Loyal, repeat guests produce more revenue than any other guests.

How do you train your team to provide genuine, professional, and exceptional service to your guests?




TECHNICAL SKILLS VS. SOFT SKILLS
 
There are two aspects to the service your team provides to your guests.


TECHNICAL SKILLS

Examples of technical skills include:
  • Proficiency in operating a property management system
  • Accurately closing out guest checks
  • Properly operating tools and completing maintenance requests
  • Correctly transferring telephone calls
Most hotel leaders would probably agree that their brand or hotel company provides sufficient training and information to associates to perform the technical aspect of their jobs.


SOFT SKILLS

The ability to genuinely and professionally serve your guests is arguably the most important aspect of your team's role. Doing this requires SOFT SKILLS.


Soft skills are interpersonal skills, decision-making
and communication abilities, presentation qualities, mannerisms, and attitudes that are the key attributes
in a service environment.



SOFT SKILLS NEED TO BE DEVELOPED.
