According to Anneliesse Cooper, Chief Human Resources Officer, Atrium Hospitality, AtriumRISE candidates were selected during Atrium’s portfolio-wide annual talent review. Program participants were invited based on their interests in pursuing a Hotel General Manager role, ability to relocate, and readiness to take the next steps in their career journeys.

“AtriumRISE supports participants’ aspirations to level up in their hotel careers,” said Anneliesse. “We learned a lot from conducting our WomenRISE training program last year, and we’ve applied those meaningful insights to the development of AtriumRISE. While WomenRISE emphasized building female participants’ confidence and visibility, AtriumRISE aims to enhance class members’ engagement with robust program content spanning hotel operations and leadership skills development, including free access to paid resources and tools.”

Over a nine-month training schedule, AtriumRISE participants will:

• Register for the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) Lodging Manager Apprenticeship Program, providing them access to AHLA’s online resources as well to the ability to earn a certification upon completion.
• Utilize Atrium’s internal learning library for developing their leadership proficiency, including access to a leading university’s subscription-based online course offerings.
• Receive support from assigned mentors and instructors.
• Learn more about hotel Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and how to successfully manage performance against a balanced scorecard tool.
• Receive 360-degree assessments identifying their strengths and areas for development.
• Build their networks among Atrium leadership through enhanced visibility.
• Prepare to confidently pursue a Hotel General Manager role.
