Color me impressed. Earlier today I wrote about how the Sheraton Grand Taipei Hotel was violating Starwood's ban on shark fin soup. A reader reported the hotel's restaurant serving shark fin soup during the Chinese New Year celebrations. In 2014 Starwood took a stance and banned shark fin soup at all their hotels and restaurants globally,without exception. It's mighty to see global companies steal ethical stands like this, even when it's not celebrated in some areas.It was obvious to me that in this instance we were seeing one hotel violate Starwood's policy, or rather than Starwood having a change of heart. With so many hotels around the world and tens of thousands of employees,I guess it's to be expected that not everyone will always "score the memo." What's important is how they handle the situation when it arises.
Starwood's social media team has just reached out with the following update:The post Starwood’s Impressive Response Regarding Shark Fin Soup appeared first on One Mile at a Time.
