Executive Assistance to Vice President, Sales

lebua at State Tower
Bangkok, Thailand

Susan, how are you and everyone at IHMC doing? How is Vancouver post Olympic? I believe that everyone is having a good time there, since the summer is approaching. I'm doing very well here in Thailand. I've been so busy with moving, adjusting to my new lifestyle (I had been in living in Vancouver for 10 years after all, so Bangkok is quite foreign to me in some sense), and working here. It's quite a big transition for me. Before I realize it, I've left Vancouver for 4 months already. Time flies, doesn't it? Recently, I received an email from Karina which made me think "oh my god, I've not contacted Susan and everyone at IHMC at all".


To update you with my work, I'm happily working in a hotel right now. I am now working at lebua at State Tower as an Executive Assistant to the Vice President - Sales.






Lebua at State Tower is one of the city hotels featured in Kiwi Collection. Although Executive Assistant is my title, my daily works are almost like those of Revenue Manager (since we don't have Revenue Department and the Reservation Department is too busy with everything else, they decide that they would let someone in Sales Department do it and that someone happens to be me!) I run through a lot of reports from Fidelio everyday and do forecasting 2 times a week. I'm really grateful that they gave this opportunity to me. After all, I'm someone who had never worked in Sales, Reservation, nor Revenue Department.

Guess what? They offered me this job because they were impressed with my resume and experiences that I earned while I was in IHMC. They believed that with all the experiences that I had, I would be able to learn everything in no time. Another thing is that I went to interview 4 times (with Recruiter, Director of HR, Vice President - Sales (my current boss), and the CEO of the hotel) and every time, I was in business suit.

They were really impressed with my grooming. They said that I would fit in the hotel especially the Executive Office very well (and yes, I still wear business suit to work everyday). You, Tia, and Eric are right. It is important to dress properly. IHMC taught me well. Thank you!

dealing with celebrities in luxury hotels Source: Kiwi Collection blog: Michael Jackson will be sorely missed by all of us here at Kiwi Collection…but will he be missed by all of our hotels? MJ was a frequenter of many of the fine hotels in the Kiwi Collection. And, well, he wasn’t always the easiest guest. Here are some of Michael Jackson’s most memorable hotel moments. Michael Jackson Unleashes his Inner Child at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower: 2007 Are we really surprised to learn that Michael Jackson demanded that a children’s xylophone, sweets and gigantic 6 foot by 6 foot mirror be brought up to his room while he was checking in to the Jumeirah Carlton Tower Hotel in London? It was rumored at the time that he was in London in 2007 to sell his rights to his catalogue of Beatles Songs after running up huge debts which were believed to total an unthinkable £180 million! Maybe he needed to relieve some stress? Even though he spent his time playing with a child’s toy and satisfying his s...

Forbes Travel Guide

formerly Mobil Travel Guide How does Forbes Travel Guide rate hotels? Forbes Travel Guide uses stars to represent levels of quality, including its famous FIVE-STAR AWARD certification, which represents a "level above" other rating systems. Unlike other travel sites, which can vary wildly in their consistency and their assessment of service and value, the Forbes Travel Guide inspectors make unannounced visits to every rated property. The Guide has rated hotels and restaurants since 1958 -- longer than any other site or company. Unlike many other sites, Forbes Travel Guide inspectors don't call ahead or warn managers and staff that they're on the way. There are two types of inspections: Facility inspection: Every property gets a visit from a facility inspector, who uses a checklist to evaluate cleanliness, physical condition and location. This inspection results in a Forbes One-, Two- or Three-Star rating. Spas are the only exception -- the minimum standa...
