To facilitate this, an extensive employee training program was put in place across all 40 countries in which Sofitel operates to make every one of the organization’s 25,000 employees “ambassadors” for the brand. Every employee, from new hires to the most long-term employees, from hourly employee to executives, went through a two-year long onsite training program at the individual hotel site in which the employee works. Training was provided by a corporate training team that traveled from location to location. Training centered on how to create a sense of luxury for customers, empowering employees at all levels with the freedom to make unique and personalized experiences for any guests on the spot. Employees are issued “passports” for their training, which are stamped upon completion of individual training units with stamps rewarded through gift certificates, celebrations, accreditation, and heightened responsibilities. Ongoing monthly training is provided to employees who have successfully completed the initial two-year training. The program has resulted in significant improved guest satisfaction and greatly aided in employee retention.1 If an organization considers its employees to be human assets, training and development represents an ongoing investment in these assets and one of the most significant investments an organization can make. Training involves employees acquiring knowledge and learning skills that they will be able to use immediately; employee development involves learning that will aid the organization and employee later in the employee’s career. Many organizations use the term learning rather than training to emphasize the point that the activities engaged in as part of this developmental process are broad based and involve much more than straightforward acquisition of manual or technical skills. Learning implies ongoing development and continuously adding to employees’ skills and knowledge to meet the challenges the organization faces from its external environment.
