TESTIMONIALS FROM COURSE PARTICIPANTS:

Percy Ivan Aguilar, Porta Hotel Antigua, Guatemala: Building up an engaged and empowered team that will work towards sustainability in the long term became a huge challenge since we didn't know how to set up achievable goals and measure the development of our sustainable practices. The Sustainability is a Team Sport Course has helped us to drive our actions in the correct path for long term sustainable practices in our organization. Thank you so much Aurora!

Ayanna Duval, Secrets Resorts & Spas, Monetgo Bay, Jamaica: I enjoyed the course layout and training material. The reading material is practical and can be maximized for bite sized training sessions and brainstorming for ideas. Some ideas from the course are now being reviewed and several are in the installation stages. I believe it’s a good course for employees and supervisors who are Green Team members as it provides them with an international view of sustainable management. The examples are diverse and include hospitality and non-hospitality companies. It was my little escape into a new world of possibilities for sustainability!

Jessica T., a Florida-based college student who started a green team at a Caribbean restaurant: “The Sustainability is a Team Sport toolkit gave me the foundation and understanding of what a green team really is. It helped me bring my team members together for a good cause as well as help our bottom line. I was able to learn how to make a pitch as well has how to network and build a team. The best outcome of having a green team was that we were able to find common ground and make an active change in our business. Everyone has a voice.”
