1. Introduction
This is an assignment that involves analysis of a hotels mission statement. At first the student chose the cape heritage hotel, but when she went to speak to the general manager, Anja Du Plessis, she realised that not every business has a printed out mission statement, they might have a culture and they know what their goals are but they are too small to have a typed out mission statement. The student tried to find a mission statement of the southern sun hotel group. The Tsogo Sun Group is a very big hotel group that needs to have a mission statement so that all the southern sun hotels have the same vision and mission. They need to know where they are going to and what the main purpose is. The hotel didn’t want to give a mission statement to the student but there was something on their website that could tell the student a little more about the hotel group and its mission. Their vision and mission is to provide the greatest possible variety of quality hospitality, leisure, and gaming and entertainment experiences at all their destinations (Tsogo Sun. (n.d.)). The Prot...
An article discussing the importance of a mission statement states that a mission statements’ job is to outline the organization’s unique purpose and establish the basis of its values and traits, as well as describe the attitude that is to be expected of those a part of the organization. Furthermore, this philosophical foundation sets the “tone” for physical actions, meaning that the content of the mission statement can determine the behavior of personnel (Hitt & Ireland, 1992).
A mission statement is a powerful message that companies or organizations set to be the focus and reason behind why or how they manage things. They are used to help their potential members, employees, or buyers understand their passion. It is of great importance that the mission statement is upheld or it becomes ineffective. These statements are written differently, but they are used for the common objective. The mission statement at Spring Hill College is a well written statement that uses effective style, has a clear focus, and can be interpreted by a varying audience.
The first chapter in this book explains a business’ mission and values. When discussing the mission, Welch states that in order to create an effective mission statement, one must explain how they intend to win in that particular business. The key is profitability, “Delineate their strengths and weaknesses in order to assess when they can profitably play in the competitive landscape,” (Welch, 15). This means to define the business’ strong and weak points to evaluate where they can efficiently and profitably fit within that specific business sector’s scheme. In order to come up with the mission, one can receive input from any source, but one should especially listen to the intelligent ones from all of the different sectors. Although, it is the responsibility of the top management or whoever is held responsible for it, to put it in place, it is their “defining moment,” (Welch, 17). The mission is what a business plans to do to win and values are ...
In 1919, Company founder, Conrad Hilton, purchased his first hotel in Cisco, Texas. Since that time, Hilton Worldwide has become a worldwide operator, franchisor, and licensor of hotels and timeshare properties in more than 91 countries. In nearly 100 years of existence, the Company now finds itself as one of the largest and fastest growing hospitality companies with over 4,115 properties and 678,630 rooms. With a commitment to high quality and customer satisfaction, the company has established a portfolio of 10 world-class brands including the most recognizable hotel brand in the world, the company’s flagship full-service Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand. Its premier brand portfolio includes the luxury hotel brands, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts and Conrad Hotels & Resorts, full-service hotel brands, DoubleTree by Hilton and Embassy Suites Hotels, focus-based hotel brands, Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites by Hilton and Home2 Suites by Hilton, and the company’s timeshare brand, Hilton Grand Vacations. Hilton operated properties are staffed with more the 314,000 team members focused on providing a complete experience at each location. The company’s award-wining customer program, Hilton Honors, defined rewards programs in the industry and now has over 40 million members (Hilton Worldwide).
This Company made their mission statement in 2012 and according to me this mission and vision statement is good but these need loads of changes as I have read in this course mission statement should be:-
For my analysis, I chose to write about Starbucks Coffee Company and its mission statement. Starbucks’ mission statement reads, “To inspire and nurture the human spirit – one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time.” We all know that Starbucks has enjoyed a huge amount of growth over the past 10+ years, and it is clear that they are seeing that success because they are putting their mission into action. Reading the mission statement, it’s easy to identify Starbucks’ areas of focus: the human spirit, coffee, and community. The company’s “About Us” web pages align with its mission statement.

In spite of having numerous structures in place to ensure a luxurious guest experience, the Oberoi Vanayvilas (OV) failed to provide a quality service to its hotel guest. To recover from this service failure, we recommend OV to sincerely apologize and ‘offer refund for the third night and a credit for the two nights for a future stay with additional hotel perks tobe used at OV within a year’ to the impacted guest. Main drivers for our recommendation are to convey a message that Oberoi sincerely cares about the customer inconvenience and wants its guest to revisit the hotel to win over the customer by its exemplary quality service.
Moreover there is a strategy involved, in which is stated where Marriott has to focus on (those focus points are listed in picture 1.2).
First of all I would like to express what I have learned throughout each week of the course. During the first week, I’ve got the chance to take a close look about the “mission, vision and values”. At first I thought mission
Mission- to provide values to the lives of customers, to make the lives of partners worthy, concern about environment and community

The Hotel industry has become very important in the past years due to immense traveling and growth of international business. The Hotel industry not only plays an important role in the life of people but as well as the economy of the country. I spent an hour of my day relaxing in the lobby at the Fontainebleau resort in Miami, while on vacation with my family visiting from out of state. It was my first time staying at the resort so I was eager to check it out, after seeing such great reviews on Yelp and hearing great things from friends who have been there in the past. The employees working at the resort were very welcoming, professional and willing to go above and beyond to help their guests. The check-in process was very quick due to having
