| |JULY 20248CIOReviewWELLNESS TECHNOLOGY: YOUR SUPERPOWER TO BOOST YOURSELF AS A LEADER, INSPIRE YOUR TEAM, AND TRANSFORM LIVESBy Michelle Guida, Westin Athletic Club Manager, East West HospitalityWhile there are many positives to the digital revolution that we are all experiencing, one major downside is a reduction in human connection and an increase in isolation for many. As leaders at hotel fitness centers, we have a unique opportunity to bring people back together and create lasting relationships with our guests - while also setting a healthy mindset for our resort employees. This will in turn can help to reduce turnover and inspire our workforce. We have the power to serve people's needs by creating unique opportunities for community and wellness, which could be a key differentiator between your organization and other employers. Located in the heart of Colorado's Vail Valley, The Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa is surrounded by the breathtaking Rocky Mountains. When guests enter our Athletic Club, they are often blown away by our more than 27,000 square feet of wellness facilities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, four studios for movement, yoga and Pilates classes, an on-site physical therapy clinic and an award-winning spa with 14 treatment rooms.The one major thing that this facility continues to teach me is that vacationers and employees alike are both yearning for two things: physical vibrancy and community connections.Michelle GuidaIN MY OPINION
