  • Isadore Sharp - Founder and Chairman “The Reason for Our Success Is No Secret
    Isadore Sharp - Founder and Chairman “The reason for our success is no secret. It comes down to one single principle that transcends time and geography, religion and culture. It’s the Golden Rule – the simple idea that if you treat people well, the way you would like to be treated, they will do the same.” “There was no vision, there was no grand dream,” says Issy, reflecting on the nearly 50 years since the first Four Seasons – a modest motor hotel – opened in downtown Toronto. “But there has always been a consistent thread and it propels us forward today, as we continue to grow globally, and that’s service.” It may seem obvious that in the hotel business, service is a primary objective, but it is how that service is delivered that sets Four Seasons apart. “One way to characterise Four Seasons service would be to call it an exchange of mutual respect performed with an attitude of kindness.” Defining and enforcing the company culture was one of four key strategic decisions made in the formative years of Four Seasons history. “I sat down with our communications experts and wrote down the fundamentals of our culture, which is based on the Golden Rule – to treat others as you wish to be treated,” says Issy. “A lot of companies talk about having a culture, but we knew we had to walk the talk if we expected it to thrive in our hotels.” The other key decisions include a focus on managing only medium-sized hotels of exceptional quality; to manage, rather than own, those hotels; and to make service the brand’s distinguishing edge.

  • 2019 Annual Report a Landmark Year
    2019 Annual Report A Landmark Year 2019 was a landmark year for the Gardiner Museum—record attendance, a leap forward in membership growth, and the completion of transformational capital projects. The Museum continued to grow and is now almost 40 percent larger in operating scope than it was six years ago. Most importantly, the Museum made great strides towards our goal of building community with clay through innovative and inclusive programming that engaged new visitors from across the GTA. 2 3 Exhibitions & Programs Ai Weiwei: Unbroken Ai Weiwei: Unbroken brought one of the world’s most celebrated artists to Toronto and generated unprecedented attention and attendance for the Museum. The exhibition focused on Ai Weiwei’s ceramics, including recent works in blue-and-white porcelain that depict the global refugee crisis, and iconic pieces like Coca Cola Vase (2007) and Sunflower Seeds (2010). It also marked the international debut of a new LEGO zodiac. A folio edited by Chief Curator Sequoia Miller and featuring contributions by members of the local community accompanied the exhibition. This unique publication, which included personal reflections and artistic responses, documented the exhibition while also connecting its themes to Canadian voices and experiences. The exhibition’s programming was inspired by Ai Weiwei’s fearless advocacy for human rights. AWW Free School Co-presented with Ken Moffatt, The Jack Layton Chair, and Melanie Panitch, The Director of The Office of Social Innovation, Ryerson University The innovative AWW Free School was a series of five interdisciplinary workshops on documentary media, spoken word, performance, and online journalism. All of the programming was offered free to the public.

    Isadore "Issy" Sharp Business Jet Traveler » August 2013 by MARGIE GOLDSMITH Fifty-three years ago, Isadore M. Sharp opened a modest 125-room motel in downtown Toronto and called it the Four Seasons. From that starting point, he built the Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts brand, which today includes 90 properties in 36 countries and ranks among the world’s largest and most prestigious suppliers of luxury lodging. Sharp—who was born in Toronto in 1931 to immigrant parents who spoke no English—had not planned to be a hotelier. “Everybody wants to show you how good they are," says Four Seasons founder Issy Sharp. "So we get an From his early teens on, Issy, as he was army of people every day proving how good they are.” called, worked in plastering construction (Photo: George Pimentel) for his father, Max. Upon Issy’s college graduation, Max let him take over the company, Max Sharp & Son. Just 21 years old, Issy was in charge of construction and was also a rental agent, salesperson and financier. One of the projects he built was a prospering 14-room motel in an out-of-the-way Toronto neighborhood, led him to conclude that a hotel downtown would be even more successful. So, despite knowing nothing about hotels, he built the aforementioned Four Seasons Motor Hotel. Sharp approached the business of innkeeping from the customers’ perspective. What would they consider important? What would make them feel they’d received good value? The answer is first-rate service, which remains the brand’s distinguishing quality. Even Steve Jobs admitted that his retail service model owed a debt to Sharp’s vision.
