MEETINGS
GATHERING FOR SUCCESS
“WHEN YOU DELIVER EVENTS for groups of hundreds or even thousands of attendees, you quickly appreciate properties that can get it done seamlessly and painlessly,” said Thomas Skiba, CAE, Chief Executive Officer, Community Associations Institute. Add creativity, a willingness to experiment and exceptional customer service and you have a partner for life. “We wanted to turn the hotel into a backyard BBQ and party for 2,000, and Harris Rosen and his team said, ‘Yes, what can we do to help?’ That is why we keep returning to Rosen Shingle Creek.” According to Katie Bellas, Director of Sales & Marketing, Rosen Shingle Creek, it is all about something called the Rosen Difference. “Harris Rosen’s passion for this business is palpable. He would attend every site inspection no matter the size and scope of the meetings or group, if possible. He is always excited to greet the guest and ask what it will take to earn their business, nearly always following up with a phone call for their decision. A most impressive and successful model,” said Dan Giordano, General Manager of Rosen Shingle Creek. “His enthusiasm, flexibility and passion are contagious, regardless of market conditions. As a debt-free company, there is no red tape. He allows us complete autonomy to make decisions to the benefit of our groups. This is what separates us from other hotel companies. The Rosen Difference.” This forward-thinking vision and commitment to service is reflected in Rosen’s award-winning hotels—Rosen Plaza, Rosen Centre and Rosen Shingle Creek— which were designed to exceed every need of a meeting planner and convention attendee. Maintaining a debt-free company, Rosen is able to continuously invest millions in renovations and enhancements to ensure his three convention hotels remain Orlando’s premier meeting destinations.
