Alan Mass
Vice President Western Region
"My very first General Manager in 1982 taught me a simple lesson; Take care of your people, they will take care of your customers and your hotel will be profitable. It is a simple adage that many others say but one that LodgeWorks truly lives."
What makes LodgeWorks unique?
It starts from our Chairman all the way down. There is no hierarchy or “my company, my hotel” mentality. It is truly “our” business and “our” company. We share both our successes and challenges equally.
In your life, who inspires you the most?
Without a doubt it would be my father. For the majority of my life he was a single dad and a commission-based salesman. I am not sure which job was harder - but he taught me that if you work hard, work honest and do not avoid conflict you will be a success.
Finish this sentence: Being a partner at LodgeWorks, to me, means…
that I am part of a special, select group of people that value relationships and share successes. It is the last job I hope to have.
