    Hi Carolyn and Syairah,

    This recovery email is very comprehensive and detailed. You have also utilised the REACT technique well in taking ownership of the problem and communicating to the guest that the hotel would be working closely with Agoda to facilitate the refund process.

    However, we feel that you could elaborate more on the measures taken and specify what has been done to ensure that poor service provided by the employees would not occur again. We believe this would be paramount in easing guests' complains and ensure that they would continue to patronise MSS hotel in future. Hope this helps!

    Best regards,
    Pei Ling and Xenia

Self Reflection: Interpersonal Communication Issue in a Workplace

This incident that I will be sharing occurred 2 years ago, whilst I was working as an Operation Zupervisor (their way of calling a supervisor in that particular company). Due to confidentiality, I will address the crew member involved as Roy in this post. At that point in time, I was still an intern in that company, serving my internship. We were rotated around different establishment to carry out role-play activities. However, as we were just newly opened, not many of the full-time staff members were well trained in many areas. Roy came in a little later as a full-timer of the company. Knowing that I am well trained in Fire Station, my team leader trusted my capability and attached Roy to me for on-the-job training. I have no other choice but to go ahead with the arrangement and taught him every single thing that I could in details. I could sense that he is being unhappy and unwilling to learn through all his verbal and nonverbal cues. As I am much younger with not m...

The purpose of this email today is to formally introduce myself. Prior to my degree studies in SIT, I graduated from Temasek Polytechnic (TP) with a diploma in leisure and resorts management. As my diploma suggests, I have a great interest in the tourism and attractions industry since young. I enjoy visiting places of interests and museums. One of my favorite attractions is Disneyland; The happiest place on earth. What makes Disneyland outstanding is their detailed services and friendliness provided by the staff members and characters, not forgetting the efforts put in by the company to provide the magical "Disney" touch. During my time in TP, I joined KidZania Singapore (KZSG) as my internship company during...
