Online Reviews are your Guest’s First Impression

If your company is not paying attention to managing and responding to online reviews, it is time to make it a habit to incorporate this into your workforce’s daily work routine, especially if you’re in the industry of Food and Beverage. Online reviews are becoming your restaurant’s first impression and once someone adds comments about their experience on one of these platforms, they are there indefinitely, and are likely to influence those who have not been to your restaurant yet. Good ones are great! Bad ones are not - even down-right damning. These reviews have the power to make or break your success. Don’t believe me? Check out these facts by Inc.com!

Making a difference, one student at a time

Every year, this time comes by so quickly. I mean really, where did summer go? This is an exciting time of year for everyone. Maybe you’re a parent sending your children off to school for the first time, a first-year college student, or maybe you’re going back to school after a 10-year hiatus. Wherever you are in your educational journey, I am encouraging you to keep going! As many of you may know, I am originally from Jordan and education brought me to the States. It was in 1989 where I started my student career in the United States at Southern Illinois University. This opportunity is what motivates me to support others in their professional endeavors. I have always been a life-long learner and higher-education is very important to me in supporting the cultivation of the next generation of working professionals.
