MANAGER'SMESSAGE
Fall is right around the corner and cooler temperatures are not far behind…hopefully. I’m sure all of us are looking forward to some cooler weather after a hot summer in the south. Fall is also a favorite time of year for football (Go Steelers!) and more importantly, golf, tennis & pickleball as well as private events. We have a busy fall schedule lined up and this provides all our clubs on the island the opportunity to make a difference in our member's and guests' experience
“Small actions can have big outcomes. One extra degree of effort can make a world of difference.”
- Sam Parker & Mac AndersonHow can you make a difference to the overall experience? Below are a few examples of how small actions can have big outcomes.
Simply engage a member or guest and offer a genuine smile by welcoming them to your respective property
Thanking members and guests for playing or dining at your facility
Use the member or guest name at least three times during your interactions. Name recognition is a game changer because it elevates the experience to new heights. These Heritage fundamentals can turn the experience from good to great.
Please contact your supervisor and ask about our Heritage Fundamentals These fundamentals are outlined on pocket cards for easy access and implementation
Employee appreciation: Be on the lookout for our upcoming ALL employee golf and or Pickleball events. These afternoon employee events are designed to be fun and social with a little competition. I hope to see you at one or both of these upcoming employee events
Thank you for all your efforts!
Jay Rusch, General Manager & Director of Golf
