This value is central to Marriott&#8217;s philosophy: when associates are taken care of, they, in turn, take care of the guests, leading to guest satisfaction and loyalty.<\/p>\n<p>During this significant occasion for Marriott, the Cluster General Manager, Mr. Matthias Widor, and the Cluster Director of Human Resources, Ms. Nicole Ingabire Munyangabe, kicked off the event.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Matthias Widor expressed his gratitude to the associates, reflecting on the past year&#8217;s accomplishments and the hotel&#8217;s growth. He mentioned notable achievements such as the opening of the Four Points by Sheraton, hosting the CHOGM in June 2022, surpassing expectations after the pandemic, and hosting the 73rd FIFA Congress in March of this year. He credited the dedication and passion of the associates for making all these achievements possible. <\/p>\n<p>Mr. Widor expressed his pride in being part of the winning team and extended his heartfelt thanks to everyone, emphasizing his love for Rwanda and the warm welcome he and his family have received.<\/p>\n<p>The Cluster Director of Human Resources, Ms. Nicole Ingabire Munyangabe, spoke about the AAW (Associates Appreciation Week) and the exciting plans for the enjoyable week ahead. <\/p>\n<p>She conveyed her wishes for a happy AAW and expressed excitement in celebrating and acknowledging the associates for their hard work and positive energy that drive the success of the business. <\/p>\n<p>Ms. Munyangabe emphasized that the associates are integral to the operation of the hotels and conveyed a big thank you to them for their contributions.<\/p>\n<p>{{Day 1: Take Care}}<\/p>\n<p>{ {{The general manager together with the heads of departments shared a special lunch
