Assistant manager plan in lobby

Hotel is an important pillar industry of China's tourism industry, and it is also one of the earliest industries in line with international standards. As a job seeker who loves the hotel industry and is committed to it, I deeply understand that the competition in today's hotel industry is the competition of hotel managers' quality. As a manager, you must have a strong modern consciousness, scientific professional management knowledge and moderately advanced thinking ability. According to my understanding of the work of the front desk department, I want to explain my thoughts on the position of assistant manager in the lobby and its work plan.

First, the assistant manager's job understanding:

The assistant manager of the lobby belongs to the front desk department and is the nerve center of the hotel. As the manager of the front desk department, the assistant manager of the lobby has different characteristics from other managers: the main purpose of setting up the assistant manager of the lobby is to manage and serve the hotel with it as the "core", and management and service are the two elements on which a hotel depends. The main job of the assistant manager in the lobby is to do a good job in the daily operation and management of the department; Coordinate the relationship between departments to make the hotel coordinate horizontally and vertically; Handle guest complaints; Welcome distinguished guests on behalf of the general manager and participate in foreign exchanges; Serve the guests well. In the eyes of the guests, the assistant manager in the lobby represents the image of the hotel, and its "core" role determines the particularity of the assistant manager's work and the high standard quality requirements for the assistant manager in the lobby.

Second, the assistant manager of the lobby work plan:

Any work must be carried out with phased goals, and only with goals can it be substantive and practical. This goal can be divided into short-term, medium-term and long-term goals.

1. As our hotel is a newly opened hotel, the short-term goal is mainly to get ready during the operation period, and a good start plays a decisive role in the development of a hotel. The assistant manager's work focuses on the following:

(1), correctly establish the front office organization (post) and staffing.

With the development of hotel industry, the work of hotel front desk is becoming more and more professional. Generally speaking, the principle of setting up the organization of the front desk department in a hotel is to ensure the efficiency of the front desk work and facilitate customers. The organization of the front desk of each hotel should also consider the category, nature, scale and business volume of the hotel.

(2), formulate the responsibilities of the front desk.

Because the front desk is the nerve center of the hotel, the guests get the initial impression of the hotel here and form the final evaluation of the hotel, so the service quality of each position at the front desk represents the management level of the hotel, and the responsibility of each position is formulated to standardize the service, improve the service quality and make the standard of high-quality service have rules to follow. (Attachment: Main Job Responsibilities of Front Desk Department)

(3), standardize the front desk work rules and service processes and carry out staff training.

As far as the nature of hotel service work is concerned, each specific job has its own specific special skill requirements. Standardizing post work rules and service processes plays an important role. It can be used as supplementary terms and standards to determine whether employees are qualified, and it is also the basis to measure whether employees meet the minimum requirements. By training employees, the service of employees can be standardized and specialized, and the service quality can be avoided to the greatest extent because of personnel changes. (Attachment: Work Plan for Front Desk Training before Hotel Opening)

2. While achieving short-term goals, we should also consider the implementation of medium-term goals. According to the nature and scope of work, the assistant manager of the lobby aims to strengthen departmental management, do a good job of communication and coordination with various departments, and make the hotel's operation in a stable development and benign operation to the greatest extent. Emphasis should be placed on the following aspects:

(1), strengthen the management of the front desk staff, cultivate their professionalism, and achieve high-quality service with professional teams.

The survival of the hotel depends on the degree of recognition of the guests. Guests have two expectations when they arrive at the hotel, material enjoyment and spiritual enjoyment, which complement each other. Managers should be aware of the importance of providing targeted services to guests. Most of the guests' first impressions of the hotel come from the front desk staff. The success of front desk reception service depends on the behavior of each employee, so it is more important to strengthen the management of employees. The assistant manager of the lobby must have a deep understanding of the basic qualities that front desk service personnel should have, and constantly train employees in customer relations, sales skills and business skills to strengthen their professional quality.

(2), do a good job of internal and external, horizontal and vertical communication and coordination.

Customer service is a holistic and systematic work, which cannot be completely completed by one person or one department. In order to ensure the success of operation and management, the hotel must emphasize the overall operation, and the assistant manager of the lobby should master the methods or skills of effective coordination and communication, do a good job of "center" and "integration and optimization" of horizontal and vertical communication and coordination between internal and external departments and management, and realize high-quality and efficient service.

(3) Establish an effective guest history file and deal with what the guests left behind.

Medium-term goal: to establish an effective guest history file and properly handle the guest's opening and closing in time will play an inestimable role in the hotel's long-term business development and lay the foundation for the hotel to maintain benign operation.

In the long-term goal, the assistant manager of the lobby should try his best to maximize the profit of the hotel through professional knowledge and scientific management. Its work focuses on training first-class service personnel; To train employees as the main body and implement total quality management; Effectively motivate employees to give full play to their work enthusiasm and service enthusiasm; Improve employees' loyalty to the hotel; Reasonable and effective control of operating costs, etc ...

These are some of my understandings and thoughts. If there are any shortcomings and mistakes, please correct me.

Ten Taboos of Assistant Manager in Lobby

The main responsibility of the assistant manager in the lobby is to receive every guest who meets difficulties and needs help in the hotel on behalf of the hotel and solve them within his own authority, including answering guests' own inquiries, solving guests' problems and handling guests' accommodation. Therefore, the assistant manager of the lobby is the bridge between the hotel and the guests, and it is an important link for the hotel to establish a good guest relationship. In order to do our assistant manager's work well, this paper summarizes the "ten taboos" of the assistant manager's work in the lobby.

First, avoid always sitting on the workbench in the lobby.

Many times, the assistant manager of the lobby should greet the guests coming and going in the lobby, answer some questions of the guests at will, and never miss any opportunity to communicate with them. On the one hand, it facilitates the guests, humanizes the service of the hotel and increases the affinity of the assistant manager in the lobby. On the other hand, we can collect more guests' opinions and suggestions on the hotel, help us find the problems and deficiencies in the service and management of the hotel, find hidden dangers in time, and control them before the guests complain.

Second, avoid calling employees in other departments of the hotel "them" in front of guests.

In the eyes of the guests, the hotel is a whole. No matter which department has a problem, he will think it is the responsibility of the hotel. The assistant manager of the lobby works on behalf of the hotel, so it is forbidden to call employees of other departments "them" in front of guests.

Third, avoid paying attention to the time, place and place when handling complaints.

Some assistant managers in the lobby often only pay attention to the principle of timeliness when dealing with guest complaints, but ignore the flexibility and artistry in dealing with problems. For example, if a guest gets angry during lunch break, eating, or in public places such as dormitories and banquet halls, the effect of handling complaints at these times and occasions is not good, and it may also cause guests to resent, adding "qi" to "qi" and burning oil on the fire.

Fourth, avoid lack of self-confidence and show excessive humility in front of guests.

In fact, the assistant manager of the lobby handles the complaints of the guests and receives them on behalf of the general manager of the hotel. His words and deeds represent the image of the hotel, and he should show full self-confidence, courtesy, hospitality, pride and humility rather than humility. Excessive humility is a sign of lack of self-confidence, which is often looked down upon by guests and loses confidence in the hotel.

Avoid lest guests complain.

Complaining is not only a bad thing but also a good thing. Complaining customers, like a doctor, are providing free diagnosis for hotels, so that hotel managers can prescribe the right medicine, improve services and facilities, and improve service quality and management level. So, don't avoid complaining, treat it correctly.

6. Don't speak carelessly and leave no room.

In order to avoid putting yourself in a passive position when dealing with guests' check-in, you must leave room for yourself, but you must clearly tell the guests how long it will take to solve the problem.

Seven, avoid not familiar with hotel business and related knowledge.

If the assistant manager in the lobby is not familiar with the hotel business knowledge and related knowledge, such as room service procedures, food delivery services, cashier procedures and related regulations, hotel discounts, credit card knowledge, washing knowledge, basic laws and regulations, civil aviation ticketing knowledge, etc. , will inevitably affect the accuracy and timeliness of handling complaints, and will also lose the trust of guests.

Eight, don't be afraid to have a mentality of secretly winning or losing with guests.

Generally speaking, guest complaints indicate that there are problems in our service and management. Generally speaking, guests are unwilling to complain in person. Therefore, even if the guest's words and deeds are somewhat different, the "right" should be given to the guest. Because although we "won" the guests on the surface, we offended them and made them dissatisfied with us and the hotel. In fact, we still lost.

Nine, avoid dealing with complaints only to guests, can't understand the real intention of the guests.

Guest complaints can be summarized into three kinds of mentality, seeking to vent, seeking respect and seeking compensation. The assistant manager in the lobby should be able to accurately grasp the real mentality and intention of the guest's complaint, give the guest an opportunity to vent, and don't argue and explain unnecessarily with the guest. Even if correctly understanding the mentality and intention of complaints is the key and shortcut to handle complaints well.

X. Avoid neglecting further attention to the complaint results.

The person who receives the guest's complaint is often not the one who really solves the problem, so it is still a question mark whether the guest's complaint is finally solved. In fact, many guests' complaints have not been fundamentally solved, or this problem has been solved, but another problem has emerged. Therefore, it is particularly important to track the complaint handling process and pay attention to the handling results. It will make guests feel that the hotel's complaints are very important, thus making guests leave a good impression on the hotel.
