DePaul to train hotel leaders; $7.5 million assist for program from Hilton Foundation

Oct132008

Chicago’s role as a training ground for tourism-industry managers will expand dramatically next fall when DePaul University launches a School of Hospitality Leadership in its business school with help from a $7.5 million gift from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation.

The grant, to be formally announced Wednesday, is the second-largest private donation received by the university, which has committed to raising another $9.1 million to match it.

“We are talking to a number of other hotel chains,” said Ray Whittington, dean of DePaul’s College of Commerce.

There’s Only One Way to Make Money in Sales

Jun202008

Over the years I have bought and sold several rental properties. One of my recent houses needed some work done since the yard sloped toward the house and caused a water problem.

I was going to build a deck but first I needed to work on solving the water problem.

I started with a shovel. That lasted about 15 minutes. I knew there had to be a better way so I headed to the equipment rental company.

Attack the Market Aggressively

Jun202008

“In the 50 years that I have been involved in foodservice distribution, I have never experienced such a challenging atmosphere for our industry, which also includes our customers and vendors,” said Stephen Horowitz.

The closest period I can remember is when we had price controls, which caused great problems.

Restaurants are facing far higher costs of product, ever increasing labor and other operating costs, and lower revenues. With fewer customers, restaurants are reluctant to adequately pass along their cost increases.
