Opening Our Doors for Medical Heroes Initiative, by Sunardi SONG, GM of Novotel Jakarta Cikini
Take Action, Action does not always bring result. But there is definitely No Result without any action, quoted from Mr. Sunardi SONG. With a sincere intention to provide support to his Heartist team and his owning company, Pak SONG dare to take a lead and took prompt actions to pioneer a project between Accor and the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy to open the hotel door for our Medical Heroes. Along with 4 other Accor hotels in Jakarta, they agreed on last March 2020, to provide an accomodation for more than 1100 Medical Frontliners. As a pioneer back then, he and his HODs Team had limited time to convince all stakesholder (owner and team members) and at the same time invent necessary protocols. It was heartwarming how his team supported the idea, there were 67 Heartists out of 78 who volunter to keep working and supported this project back then. Listen also on how his team lead by his EAM, Hilmansyah and his TCM, Andra took care of each other’s well being while they worked and stayed in the hotel, away from their family. His advice to Future Leader, in Navigating in uncertainty, be brave to take every opportunity arise, in order to provide the best options for your team and owners, as Speed is the new business currency.
