I worked along side Jorge for the rebranding of Chelsea hotels during a full renovation, a system migration and preparing for a hotel opening. Jorge would come in each day with a clear and concise game plan. The team would follow his lead and always go to him when they needed assitance and advise. Jorge was great at communicating with each department and ensuring that all team members knew all necessary information. He was great at motivating the team, handling guest issues and catering to the long term tenants. Jorge is an outstanding team leader and coworker.
