WHY WAS HE NOMINATED?

Sher has welcomed more than 300 team members over the past six months at the hotel. He drove to Dubai Airport from Ras Al Khaimah at least five times daily to pick up team members arriving from more than 50 countries, notching up more than 60kms on his personal car in the process.

WHAT DID HIS TEAM SAY?

“I remember my arrival in Dubai. After he had been waiting for two hours in the middle of the night for me, he did not complain, but invited me to tea. It was 5am and by that time I was extremely tired, but still enjoyed my cup of tea and the interesting conversation that came along with it.” Alastair, assistant sales manager
