He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- If you want a team to support you, to go through fire and brimstone with you, to sacrifice and look up to you as a leader, you’ve got to be able to listen to their opinions, and to be interested in their opinions, because they know more about the subject than you do.
- Marriott shifted the company’s business model in the late 1970s from hotel ownership to property management and franchising by splitting the company in 1993 into Marriott International, a hotel management and franchising company and Host Marriott International, a hotel ownership company.
- Marriott’s leadership of Marriott International spans nearly 60 years, where he led Marriott from a family restaurant business to a global lodging company.
