Off Duty Skills Help Motovation at Work

Staff at the Old Lodge Malton are enjoying an initiative that helps them to us their off duty skills whilst at work. Started during a staff briefing session, the initiative has emerged as a major benefit to the hotel and to the staff with motivation and team building.

“It’s amazing what is right under your nose and when we started thinking about the potential for the team in being able to use their other interests to further their work and at the same time help them to enjoy it more, it became obvious that we should try to harness it” Comments Eileen Lowery, hotel manager.

Nicola Evans is the screenwriter and will now be putting those skills to use in preparing descriptions for the hotel’s special events. Marina Kottermair is a German linguist and as well as her mother tongue, speaks fluent English, French and Latin and will be responsible for all translation in print, online and in person, Adam Grey is a writer and is to take over the role of copy writing and checking hotel print and online written collateral.

“My team are very accomplished generally and this will hopefully add more fulfilment to their everyday job here at the hotel. As for myself, I am the qualified English Federation of Body Building judge, so I can make sure they are on top form!” added Eileen.
