I have been fortunate throughout my career to work with incredible people and to live in beautiful areas. Working for resort owners that are willing to invest in projects that create new experiences for guests and create additional asset value is what has driven me throughout my career. Creating a culture throughout the team to “Think Like Owners” has been a key driver in our success over the years. I believe in hiring the best and letting them create positive change. The true test of any team is to deliver results consistently over time. Coaching team members to think differently, be creative and define the benefit both in terms of service and economics is where I spend most of my time and it pays off consistently. https://www.daughertyken.com/home daily 1.0 2020-11-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f08d46b38c389259559552e/1595905421383-FSE2LT85HX9ZD0841O3C/image-asset.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f08d46b38c389259559552e/1595874889258-7YLPLA2J0BTJR570OHD6/image.jpg Home - “Ken is an outstanding businessman and has the highest integrity .

After years of creating best practices, dispelling accepted “Hotel Standards” and making sure that our guests understood our mission, we memorialized these practices in our book, entitled Skamania Lodge, Managing Food Waste. This is a book written by F&B professionals, for F&B professionals. We share this at no cost, and ask industry professionals to help to continually improve the content. The American Hotel and Lodging Association and the World Wildlife Fund have recognized our efforts and have completed white papers on our efforts. Here is what Kathy McGuire had to say about the bilk Forty percent of the food that is grown in the United States never gets eaten. Food waste is a tragedy when 50 million Americans are considered ‘food insecure’. The team at Skamania Lodge has created an excellent food waste reduction guide. This guide can be utilized by any hotel, catering company, or restaurant. The industry has truly needed a comprehensive plan for ad- dressing food waste and this one does just that!
