CORINTHIA HOTELS HUMAN RESOURCES EXECUTIVES SPEAK
AT NYU SCHOOL OF CONTINUING AND PROFESSIONAL STUDIES
(NYU-SCPS) FORUM ON “INSIGHTS TO HOSPITALITY HIRING”
February 8, 2012 -- Corinthia Hotels’ Seama
Nahar, corporate director of human resources, and
Alexandra Pisani, HR project coordinator, spoke at a
forum focusing on “Young HR Leaders' Insights to
Hospitality Hiring,” recently held at the Preston
Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and
Sports Management at the NYU School of Continuing
and Professional Studies (NYU-SCPS). Co-sponsored
by the NYU-SCPS Hospitality and Tourism Society, the
panel featured human resources leaders who
represented global luxury brands, including
Corinthia Hotels, a collection of luxury five-star
properties in Europe and across the Mediterranean
region. Ms. Nahar and Ms. Pisani shared their
experiences from the perspective of a rapidly
expanding luxury hotel group.
In her overview, Ms. Nahar said, “Having
successfully opened our flagship hotel in London in
2011, we are targeting accelerated growth in the
coming years through the acquisition and development
of new Corinthia Hotels. We seek to recruit staff
members with the right attitude and personality to
reflect the ‘Spirit of Corinthia.’ We characterize
this as devotion to the craft of hospitality and
accountability that is seen brand-wide at Corinthia
Hotels."
Alexandra Pisani, daughter of Alfred Pisani, the
Founder and Group Chairman of Corinthia Hotels,
spoke of the key role that human resources plays in
ensuring the continuity of the ‘Spirit of Corinthia’
since it starts at the recruitment level. Ms.
Pisani said, “I feel strongly, that it is the
staff’s dedication to care and personal attention to
detail, reflected in the ‘Spirit of Corinthia,’ that
in the end is what distinguishes Corinthia Hotels
from other luxury brands.”
Ms. Nahar added, “Corinthia Hotels’ participation in
the panel is part of the launch of new brand-wide
human resources initiatives that include the Corinthia
Leadership Development Program, ‘Spirit of Corinthia’
recruitment brochures and video.
