<h1>Daring To Be Great: Female General Managers Spotlight</h1>
Cue the confetti! As we wrap up Women’s History Month and our celebration of past, current, and future female leaders, we’d like to shine the spotlight on three of Twenty Four Seven Hotels’ extraordinary female General Managers who are making a difference and opening the table for everyone to contribute.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-2197" src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Untitled-design-6.png" alt="" width="953" height="396" />
What inspires you in the workplace? 
Nicole: I’ve always been inspired by those that weren’t always dealt the greatest hand, but you would never know it by their work ethic.
Jessica: Workplace relationships and connections. The opportunity to meet a myriad of individuals from all over the world and learn from the talented associates I lead.
Adilene: The desire to learn something new every day. New challenges arise, nothing is ever the same and being able to find solutions to different situations is inspiring for me.
What is your work mantra? 
Nicole: We set the bar.
Jessica: Stop trying to calm the storm. Calm yourself. The storm will pass.
Adilene: To celebrate all kinds of success whether it&#8217;s big or small, any celebration is exciting and it’s important to find different ways to celebrate your team.
What is your leadership philosophy? 
Nicole: I believe my team is watching how I handle every matter–big and small. Therefore, I lead by example. I show each of them that the bare minimum isn’t an option. Recognition has become a habit to give. I show compassion, recognizing their personal life. We aren’t machines, we are people with feelings, and we all get treated with the same respect. There will always be issues that arise, however, how we deal with them will set a tone for the workplace.
Jessica: Lead by example! Brené Brown phrased it best, &#8220;For me, if you&#8217;re not in the arena also getting your ass kicked, I am not interested in your feedback.&#8221;
Adilene: I enjoy leading by example—what better example than our own.
What advice do you give up and coming female leaders?
Nicole: Being a female leader in a male driven occupation is extremely tough at times. I’m my true self, always. I can be tough, soft, funny, serious, logical, sensitive, and reasonable. But I always demand the same respect I give you. My advice is just to be your authentic self. Set boundaries when needed and enjoy what you’re doing. Because happy employees are productive employees.
Jessica: The ability to learn is the most important skill a leader should have. And empower those around you! The best leaders, develop those around them.
Adilene: The best advice I can ever give is to be yourself! That is the most powerful tool we have as leaders.
In a role, predominantly held by men, these women are carving out their own path to success and helping others along the way. Thank you for sharing your passion and inspiring us all, here&#8217;s to a bright-her future!

<h1>Daring To Be Great: Female Leader Spotlight</h1>
<h4>Donna Soumphonphakdy, Area Director of Sales </h4>
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-2087 " src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/selfie-e1678240428749.jpg" alt="" width="510" height="336" />
As we celebrate Women’s History Month, meet Donna Soumphonphakdy! She is the Director of Sales for two <a href="https://www.247hotels.com/portfolio">Twenty Four Seven Hotels</a> – <a href="https://www.247hotels.com/locations/towneplace-suites-by-marriott-ontario-chino-hills">TownePlace Suites</a> and <a href="https://www.247hotels.com/locations/holiday-inn-express-chino-hills">Holiday Inn Express</a>, both located in beautiful Chino Hills, California. Donna is one of our thriving leaders with a real passion for people and hospitality and she is enthusiastic about what’s to come. 
How did your career begin? 
Honestly, I feel like I was a late bloomer in the hospitality industry. After graduating college, it was challenging to get my foot in the door for a sales position and I knew from my internship at InterContinental Saint Paul Riverfront, operations was not something I wanted to pursue. So, I continued with administrative and retail sales jobs, building experience until I received an opportunity as a Group Sales Manager for Crowne Plaza Minneapolis. That was 2014 and have been in the hospitality industry ever since.   
Why hospitality? What do you love most about your job? 
My mom was a housekeeper for 25 years at the Crowne Plaza Minneapolis. Growing up at the hotel, I loved seeing and being a part of the culture and community they built for their employees. The same hotel was my first Group Sales Manager position.  
I love the real connections I make with people. It’s so important to be able to connect with people, at every level, especially when the connection grows beyond business. Building relationships is key, you just never know when a connection can turn into business.    
How would you describe yourself in a single sentence? 
&#8220;In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.&#8221; &#8211;Coco Chanel 
What motivated you to step up and become a leader in the organization? 
I am a very goal-oriented person and I always want to challenge myself. With 24seven Hotels, it was easy to want more and want to become a leader because of all the support and encouragement I received from my regional leader, ownership, and peers. Having that level of energy and hype behind you, the sky&#8217;s the limit.  
Who is the person who inspires you or your leadership mentor? 
My parents – they inspire me to want to be better for myself. Growing up I didn’t understand why my parents hustled so hard, why they pushed education, culture, religion, why it was important for them to build a home from the ground up for my sister and me. As I got older, I started to understand more, they left everything they knew for a new life, new language, new culture, new hopes, and dreams. As a first generation Asian American, I owe it to parents and myself to succeed in everything I do – they inspire me every day to be more and authentically myself.  
Favorite piece of advice you’ve received?  
I love all things women’s rights, empowerment, and equality so I really felt it when Rihanna said “There&#8217;s something so special about a woman who dominates in a man&#8217;s world. It takes a certain grace, strength, intelligence, fearlessness, and the nerve to never take no for an answer.”  
What would you say to inspire the next generation of hospitality leaders? 
Never count yourself out – if the client tells you no, it’s a no for right now but it can be a yes in the future.  
What do you do to recharge? 
Me time! I love spoiling myself, spending quality time by myself and being in-tune with my feelings. I am a firm believer in self-care and inner peace. No matter what that looks for a person, mental health is so important, especially in today’s society.  
Favorite app, podcast or book: 
My favorite app is Canva, it’s my go-to! I love creating work-related and personal content.  
My favorite book is “Women Don’t Owe You Pretty” by Florence Given.  
Favorite travel destination: 
I never thought I’d ever say this but Minnesota, I’m sure it will change once my parents decide to move to California. 
Hype song:  
I’m a 90’s and 2000’s era type of girl but any time “Pour It Up” by Rihanna comes on, it’s speaking to my soul!
Thank you for everything you do, Donna and for being an inspiration to your team. We look forward to your continued growth and you&#8217;re right – the sky IS the limit!

<h1>Zero-Proof Cocktails for the New Year</h1>
After a season of indulgence, a change in routine can be just what you need. That’s the idea behind Dry January, but Yelp believes non-alcoholic cocktail alternatives will continue to rise in popularity throughout 2023. With celebrities creating their own lines to bars going booze-free, you no longer have to order water if you’re not drinking.
Made from fresh squeezed juices, teas, and other herbal ingredients, a mocktail is as nuanced as the most complicated cocktail. According to Bacardi, 40% of respondents in the 2023 Cocktail Trends Report said they are drinking more non-alcoholic or low alcoholic drinks compared to 2020.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-1931" src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/iStock-1339612454.jpg" alt="Fruit-based mocktails in highball glasses" width="5200" height="2768" />
Stacey Rivera, Regional Director of Operations at Twenty Four Seven Hotels, is leading the way with a bar menu shake up across the hotel portfolio – “when we embrace the versatility that non-acholic drinks offer, it entices our guests to raise a glass.” In the past, when guests ordered a non-alcoholic drink, they would get something overly sweet, now with new non-alcoholic spirits, you can get the flavor complexity of an alcoholic cocktail.
The rise in craft cocktails sans alcohol is something to celebrate. So, mix it up and try these zero-proof cocktails at participating Twenty Four Seven Hotels or shake up these recipes at home—they&#8217;re sure to satisfy your craving and guaranteed to be hangover-free.

<h1>1 Week, 4 States, 18 Community Projects</h1>
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Each November we look forward to a dedicated, weeklong celebration of our customers and opportunities for our teams to participate in local community projects where we live, work and travel. At Twenty Four Seven Hotels, we believe in making each day better and this strong commitment doesn’t apply to just associates, clients and guests but also to the communities our hotels are a part of.
Throughout the week hotel teams hosted their own special events, receptions, and office visits to show appreciation for our loyal customers. This gives us time to personally engage with our clients, strengthen our relationships and thank them for their continued partnership.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1803" src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/2.png" alt="Collage of Associates and Clients" width="1835" height="581" />
In addition to thanking our customers, we champion making a positive impact in our local communities. We empower each of our associates to ask the question “what can I do next” wherever they work and live. No matter how small the project may seem, when our hospitality band collectively comes together a bunch of seemingly little things turn into big things, and we are able to leave things just a little better than before.
A few of this years’ service projects included:
<ul>
<li>Rake Up Boise – Our Boise hotels team up annually to rake leaves for the elderly in their community.</li>
<li>Second Harvest Food Bank – Our corporate team worked in the fields to plant and harvest fresh produce at Harvest Solutions Farm which supplies 40,000 pounds of healthy produce weekly to those in need.</li>
<li>Bob Hope USO – The teams in Los Angeles worked together to proudly serve our military members and their families seeking comfort and connection to home while traveling.</li>
<li>Orange County Coast keeper – We take a lot of pride in our coastal home and environment. Participating in a beach clean-up day protects marine wildlife and their habitats.</li>
</ul>
Teams also volunteered their time and collected donations for: Coachella Valley Rescue Mission, Boys &amp; Girls Club, West End Shelter for Animals, Foothill Family Shelter, Gathering Humanity, Chino Neighborhood House, Orange County Food Bank, West Valley Food Bank, Family Assistance Ministries and Life Acts.

“Part of crafting inspired workplaces is building community within our company while also helping support the area and local partnerships where we reside. We are proud to be able to serve not only our guests, but also those in need around us. That is what true hospitality is about.” says Hannah Huse, VP of Sales &amp; Marketing.

<h1>A Day in the Life: Housekeeping Department</h1>
Each day our housekeepers come to the hotel with one main goal – to make sure they provide a clean, hygienic and friendly atmosphere to all our guests.
Today, across our hotels, there are 500 rooms to cleaned and 2,000 towels to be washed.
After a team meeting at the start of shift, housekeepers set off with a list of rooms to be cleaned that day, a cart of cleaning products and room amenities, and a vacuum. First, you strip the beds. The linens and dirty towels need to be collected, to be washed immediately. Fresh linens from the cart are stretched across the mattress and folded at the creases for the famous “hotel corners.” Then, you vacuum every corner of the room. You move on to the bathroom. You replace the towels and bath amenities. Every room must look exactly like it did before the guest enters. The guest, in fact, must not be able to notice that anyone was ever there.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1370" src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/HSKP-Collage-Blog-Story-1536x1229-1.webp" alt="" width="1536" height="1229" />
If you see our housekeepers in the hotel hallways, you’ll find them with smiling faces always happy to greet you. If a guest has left anything behind, they will keep lost property safe. One of our seasoned housekeepers said, “the most important thing about my job is serving others and the opportunity to do something positive for someone.” Our associates are happy to serve, and the entire team works together to make the hotel shine – literally – so that our guests have the best possible experience. It is the ultimate act of hospitality too often taken for granted, yet unimaginable to be without.
Every September, our industry celebrates Housekeeping Week. While we appreciate their hard work and dedication every day, this is a special week to set aside time to celebrate our associates. Their tireless and selfless contributions make our hotels possible. Thank you to all of our Housekeeping Teams – YOU ROCK!

<h1>The Sky&#8217;s The Limit</h1>
We are thrilled to share Alva Nava’s recent promotion to Front Office Manager. Alva has been with Twenty Four Seven Hotels for 4 years. She joined the opening team of the Hampton Inn &amp; Suites Buena Park in 2018, working in various roles from Sales Coordinator to Front Desk Agent.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1358" src="https://login.247hotels.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/The-Skies-The-Limit.jpg" alt="Alva Nava Front Office Manager" width="564" height="464" />
From the beginning, Alva’s dedication to her craft has been very apparent when observing her engagement with guests and colleagues alike. “I chose a career in hospitality because I love interacting with people from all over the globe. I pride myself in building relationships with our corporate accounts, returning families and my team. Making guests happy and comfortable during their stay with us is what brings me joy.” said Alva.
Alva truly reflects many of our core values – kindness, compassion, and collaboration. “In the time I have worked with Alva, I have witnessed her genuine thoughtfulness and caring for both her team members and hotel guests. She will do everything from set up a meeting room and help the breakfast staff buss a table to answering the phones. Her smile and welcoming attitude have built a strong bond between the hotel and loyal guests” said Amanda Gould, Sales Manager at Hampton Inn &amp; Suites Buena Park.
Alva’s initiative to learn and grow is inspiring to all of us. “Since joining the Twenty Four Seven Hotels team, I have grown tremendously in my career and in my personal life. The learning experience is infinite when it comes to hospitality, and I love that Twenty Four Seven Hotels offers a strong support system. I plan to continue to work my way to the top and become the “crème-of-the-crop” just like those who have guided me – Brandon Jemison, John Kuhn, Amanda Gould, and Rikin Patel” said Alva.
Thank you for everything you do, and we look forward to watching you continue to grow and thrive – the sky&#8217;s the limit!

<h1>Women in Leadership</h1>
As we celebrate Women&#8217;s History Month, we looked at a recent study by the Castell Project &amp; the American Hotel &amp; Lodging Association stating &#8220;women hold only one leadership spot for every ten men&#8221; yet we know women are critical to our industry—as owners, leaders and workforce, they make up 57% of industry employees.
Hannah Huse, our Vice President of Sales &amp; Marketing shares her passion for mentorship and why building a supportive culture are key for changing these statistics.
&#8220;As a young mom, I always struggled with the tension of pursuing my career and wanting to be a present provider for my children. I had shame attached to choosing one over the other and anxiety about letting either down. I think it’s important for us to eliminate that shame and build corporate cultures that accommodate both professional growth and motherhood. We must value the unique strengths of women leaders and create an environment that supports mentorship, helping them find their voice and reach new career goals. Getting to teach and train not just sales and marketing skills, but the importance of our values and the way we interact, is one of my favorite parts of my role with Twenty Four Seven Hotels. We have the same passion for developing people as we do hotels.&#8221;
Over the last four years, I have had the opportunity to work with Deanna Kautai and participate in her development from Sales Manager to Regional Director of Sales. Most recently though, I had the joy of watching her become a mother, learning how to thrive within the home and hotel contexts.
&#8220;Hannah has played a crucial role in my development within Twenty Four Seven Hotels&#8221; says Deanna Kautai. &#8220;As I navigate being a new working mom, she provides mentorship, advice and encouragement based on her personal experiences. One of our company&#8217;s guiding principles is ‘Lead by Example,’ and I’ve been able to excel because she paved the way. I’ve followed her daily examples and taken each opportunity Twenty Four Seven Hotels has given me.&#8221;
Leesa Gibbons, Vice President of People Resources &amp; Development adds &#8220;As we come out of the pandemic, it is even more important to provide new ways of operating with flexible schedules that can accommodate the needs of women to help them reach their potential.&#8221;
Being a female in leadership takes grit, continuous learning, and a willingness to use your voice for the good of others. “I believe leading through humility is key to supporting and raising other women up as we move forward” says Hannah Huse.
