I would like to introduce you to our new, young and dynamic LCDC Covid Social Media Task Force.
You may have noticed in recent days a new energy coming out of our various social media platforms. This is not a coincidence, the members of our task force are motivated, tech savvy, well connected, creative and full of new ideas. They are revamping all our accounts, re-energizing them and bringing in new content coming directly from their respective regions and also from our colleagues around the globe. Full access was given to them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin and the Blog.
In February 2019, the Alberta Region hosted the 12th National Congress of Les Clefs d’Or Canada at the majestic Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel . During the event, many concierges met to network, discuss current trends, enjoy the amazing educational day and enjoy all Banff had to offer. Here is how I lived my first congress experience:
It has never been a challenge to get a
large group of Hotel Concierges and hospitality affiliates to start talking
about their love and passion for the industry. The people they have met, the
memories they have made and the moments that made them fall in love with their
profession ooze out of their personalities.
What can be a challenge is engaging and
encouraging this same group of professionals to spread their inexcusable high
standards, passion and love of the industry. That is what I feel Dr. Bryan
Williams spoke of to our organization at the 12th Annual National
Congress, nestled in the beautiful Canadian Rocky Mountains, in the Fairmont
Banff Springs, earlier in February.
Dr. Williams grabbed our attentions right
form the beginning, with his bright smile and welcoming personality. He drew us
into his world of excellence, and we enjoyed every crispy minute of it.
Les Clefs d’Or Alberta Region went above and beyond to give us the best experience. Every detail was covered from the moment we arrived at the airport and were greeted by our lovely concierge Jill Marven from the Fairmont Palliser Hotel who escorted us to the Banff Airporter. Upon arrival at the Fairmont Banff Springs, we were welcomed in our rooms with detailed welcome bags that contained information on the congress, gifts, treats, maple syrup, macaroons, fudge and a gift from Park Distillery.
The week was filled with many unforgettable memories; the welcoming reception, educational sessions, Banff Gondola, outdoor activities, bowling at High Rollers, the Annual General Meeting and our Gala Night.
We had the pleasure of connecting with many
wonderful motivational speakers on Day 2 of our Educational breakout sessions.
