    The first financial strategy “Manage rather than own hotel assets” is consistent with growth objectives. The company sold out the hotel assets while keeping a long-term management contract. We calculated the Return on Assets (ROA) from 1978 to 1987, it increased a little in 1979 and kept decreasing to 1987(Exhibit 1). By managing rather than owning the hotel assets, Marriott is able to increase its ROA thereby increasing potential profitability and its financial position in the market. Marriott also improves its efficiency as the general partner under long-term management contract because it can decrease useless expenses and guarantee a part of the partnership’s debt.…

    Situation: Although this four-star hotel is recognized for its high quality service and strong reputation and has talented expatriate leaders (strength), the reality is that the uncommitted, demanding (yet highly paid) Russian employees have caused the need for more expatriates and a continuous lack of productivity (weakness). Under current HR circumstances, it cannot mitigate the threat of a competitor establishing a more sustainable model in the future. Due to globalization and the nation’s economic development, which brings about greater inflows of tourists and business travelers resulting in greater demand for such hotels, great opportunities exist especially in a key city such as Moscow.…

    Several factors contributed to the conflict among staff at the HSH division office. Recent structural changes shocked and discombobulated employees and also made Dr. Eve Gordon leery of making changes or “rocking the boat” when she took over her position. Secretaries seemed to have blurred job descriptions, which allowed efficient workers to be over loaded, and less efficient workers to slack since their work was pawned onto those already at max capacity to “keep the peace.” Open lines of communication didn’t seem to exist which caused anger to fester and denied managers the benefit of employee complaints and input that would have allowed for problems to be addressed. This type of communication breakdown caused characteristic problems including the creation of…

    Management differs today than it did in the past. In the past, managers were considered “bosses” and their job mostly consisted of giving employees orders, monitoring performance and reprimanding unproductive behavior and misconduct. Many managers still manage employees in such fashion; however, some managers now tend to be more proactive and have changed managerial functions for the betterment of company operations and performance to accomplish organizational goals. Effective management for company success now entails guiding, training, supporting, motivating and coaching employees verses just demanding what work should be accomplished. Budding managers that are entering management positions today are much different than those who entered in the past. Management potentials now are more educated, qualified, skillful, adaptable, cultured and creative.…

    Hilton Case study

    • 498 Words
    • 2 Pages

    In my opinion, in response to the Starwood’s strategy, the solution for Hilton’s dilemma should be market development which is developing new market from current products or services. Hilton can avoid increasing its cost by showing customers Hilton has more and better benefits. There are several reasons for this solution. Firstly, HHonors Program has been a good service program for Hilton. On the other hand, Starwood’s Preferred Guest announcement was a strategy to their less effective frequent-guest program. As it shown on the case, “they changed it every few years”. Secondly, it is risky to compete with them by increasing the cost and adding the features Starwood added. It is because the lower cost-effectiveness will hurt the profit of the whole hotel industry eventually. Also, if Hilton can have the same or more amount of business with lower costs compared to other competitors, Hilton earns more profits. The last but not the least, it is important to market and consolidate the Hilton brand nowadays. We need to let customers know how superior Hilton is than other hotels to attract and retain consumers.…
