Manager Spotlight: The Shepherd Hotel


Listen Later

We’ll be sprinkling in some bonus episodes spotlighting stellar managers doing good work on the ground. In this conversation, Heather Sudduth, Housekeeping Manager at Shepherd Hotel, shares how she trains and supports a team where 40% of their team members have intellectual or developmental disabilities. From rotating mentorships to positive reinforcement, and stories of role-matching success, Heather offers a practical look at what an inter-ability, high-performing hospitality team really looks like.


Key Take Aways:

  • Hire for heart, then train for skill.
  • Patience and empathy are powerful leadership tools.
  • Right person, right seat makes all the difference.
