Hiltons of Branson Receive First Blue Energy Award
Hotel Complex Recognized by the Brand for Delivering Unparalleled Hospitality to Guests, Team Members and Communities
Conrad Hilton’s vision to fill the earth with the light and warmth of hospitality has been the driving force for the brand’s commitment to delivering unparalleled service to guests, team members and communities. This culture of hospitality is embodied in Hilton’s “Blue Energy.” Recognized as the property that leads in this commitment, Hilton presented the first Blue Energy Award to Hiltons of Branson for their extremely positive impact on teams, business and the community.
“Blue Energy represents such an important part of our culture of hospitality,” said Bill Derbins, general manager of Hiltons of Branson. “Congratulations to all of the team members of our two hotels for going above and beyond to make our guests and the members of our community feel valued and respected.”
More than 500 submissions were received from Hilton Hotels and Resorts around the world for this coveted recognition. The Blue Energy Quarterly Award is based on two criteria, the Brand Scorecard and on the Quarterly Update completed by each property. The Blue Energy initiatives that set Hiltons of Branson apart this quarter included a number of events recognizing team members for their hard work, a clean up effort of Branson Landing Boulevard, a food drive for survivors of the Joplin tornado and innovative ways to recycle, reduce, reuse.
The team was recognized in a special event held in the Branson Convention Center on September 26th, 2011. Representatives from the Hilton Brand team were on hand to
celebrate with the team. Bill Derbins end the event by saying,“We are very proud of the impact we’ve been able to make in the local community and plan to continue to doing so for many years to come”.
