Willemstad (December 6, 2018) – The award ceremony of the Stars of the Industry 3rd quarter of 2018 was held at CHATA member NEMO Restaurant. During this event, the 3rd quarter employees and supervisors nominated by a variety of CHATA members were recognized and celebrated. All the nominees received a gift provided by Cinemark, United Distributors and MyRonchi Trip.
Each quarter CHATA focuses on a different personal quality a person has that brings out the best in them while working in the hospitality/tourism industry. The focus of this quarter is humility.
According to President & CEO, Mr. Miles Mercera, “Humility is an essential character trait to be successful in life. Being humble entails that you do not only care for your well being, but also for the well being of others. Being humble means that you will grow much quicker as you are able to recognize and learn from your mistakes. It also means that you are open to ask for help when/if needed. Being humble is crucial in someone’s life as Pride will take you nowhere. Humility makes you approachable, it makes people want to be around you and it makes the guests feel at home while being away from home.”
