THE RIGHT PICK

Talent management is a huge challenge in the matrix of managing and securing the right hires for an organisation and it's also the key to its success
THE RIGHT PICK

Hotel industry witnesses one of the highest attrition rates. How do you ensure hiring the right candidate, and what are some key retention measures deployed to curtail the accelerating rate?

Aditi Das (AD): More than ever, we, at any Marriott hotel today, emphasise on driving Marriott's five core values of 'Putting People First, 'Pursue Excellence', 'Embrace Change', 'Act with Integrity, and 'Serve our World'. Each of us, from the GM to the last associate who joined, ensures that we spread positivity and know the individual hotels USP's. We take a holistic outlook on our team's welfare and encompass emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing. Along with providing basic facilities like clean bunkers and lockers, nutritious cafeteria meals, and a safe working environment, we have a No OT policy and a new India leave policy rolled out in January 2022 to ensure we can retain high-performing talent.
