The hospitality industry finds itself in a different work environment than ever before. The challenges left by the pandemic have impacted all levels of the hospitality workforce. Hotels and attractions are finding it very difficult to attract and retain good workers. If the employees can be found, turnover is still very high. Because properties are so short-handed, new employees are often getting only a single day of training before being sent to the floor. General managers clean rooms while brand-new employees try to handle incoming guests. Originally developed with mentorship and guidance from Tami Reist and the Alabama Mountain Lakes Tourist Association, the Flawless Delivery Hospitality Certification program provides a foundation for customer service that increases employees' sense of self-worth and their value to the company.
​
We are partnering with hotels and hospitality professionals throughout Alabama and beyond to ensure the most memorable experience for visitors throughout the region.

So, What's With the Pineapple?
​
The pineapple's story traces back to early European voyages to the Americas, where it was discovered and brought back to Europe. Originating in South America, its remarkable sweetness captivated Europeans, turning it into a sought-after delicacy.
​
In the early American colonies, pineapples became symbols of hospitality and friendship. Returning sea captains from voyages to the Caribbean Islands would display pineapples on their gateposts, signaling safe returns and welcoming visitors. This tradition evolved, with pineapples becoming customary gifts of friendship and adorning signs and bedposts of colonial inns.
​
Today, the pineapple remains a cherished symbol of hospitality in the service industry, continuing to welcome guests and symbolize warmth and friendship.
