Starwood Hotels and Resorts Case Study

Implementing Six Sigma programs takes considerable time and commitment from an organization. In your Operations Management: Processes and Supply Chains text, read the “Process Performance and Quality at Starwood Hotels and Resorts” case study on page 133. Then respond to the case study’s question 1 as your initial post for this discussion.

 QUESTIONS 

1. Implementing Six Sigma programs takes considerable time and commitment from an organization. In terms of top-down commitment, measurement systems to track progress, tough goal setting, education, communication, and customer priorities, evaluate the degree to which Starwood successfully addressed each with the redesign of the Sheraton Service Promise program.

 2. How might the new Sheraton Service Promise process help Starwood avoid the four costs of poor process performance and quality (prevention, appraisal, internal failure, and external failure)? 

3. Starwood is the first major hotel brand to commit to a dedicated Six Sigma program for improving quality. Why might an organization be reluctant to follow this type of formalized methodology? What other approaches could Starwood or its competitors use? 

Response Guidelines

Please respond to at least two learners. Your responses should be substantive and do at least one of the following:

  • Ask a probing question.
  • Offer a suggestion.
  • Elaborate on a particular point.

In the US, a common worry of parents is whether their children have a high self-esteem.  In the age of increased awareness of the ramifications of bullying behavior (physical, verbal, and relational-aggression), as well as increased competition it is no wonder parents are concerned.  Aleksandar is a coordinator of athletic programs for Centervale.  In the past, parents have insisted on participation trophies for all kids playing sports between the ages of 5 and 11.  There is currently a debate in Centervale regarding whether participation trophies for everyone should continue through middle school as well.  Some parents think it will help with self-esteem, while other parents recall never getting participation trophies when they were growing up and think losing can be a good lesson.  Think about what you have learned in this module about physical, cognitive, and socioemotional development in middle childhood.

  1. What type of parenting style would lend itself well to creating a healthy self-esteem? Why?
  2. What would your recommendation be to the sports organizer who wonders if everyone should receive a trophy just for participating?
  3. What arguments can be made on both sides of the debate?
  4. Remember to support your responses by citing your weekly readings from the online notes and the textbook.

Write your initial response in 4–5 paragraphs. Support your statements with readings and research. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Entrepreneurship is a confusing concept and may be one of those things that it is easier to recognize when we see it than it is to define. Steve Jobs, of Apple, was clearly an entrepreneur – he had an idea and he did not hesitate to pursue that idea even though there was the possibility – maybe a significant possibility – that he might not be able to make that idea a success.

If entrepreneurship is about taking risks, how can someone know if the risk is worth taking? Are entrepreneurs people who don’t care about risks? Are they people who are willing to take risks with little regard for the consequences? Or are they people who are able to accurately gauge the risks that they are taking and who are confident that the risks that they are taking are reasonable?

Can you think of an entrepreneur (other than Steve Jobs) who took risks and won?
