Dedicated to Delivering Exceptional Customer Service By Peggy Fry Vice President of Owner Services y 15 years servicing WorldMark owners has taught me one irrefutable fact — owners are fierce in their love of WorldMark. There’s rarely an instance Mwhen I’m asked what I do for a living that I don’t find the person asking is either an owner or a friend or relative of an owner, and furthermore, has a story to share with me of how WorldMark has changed their life. At the very least, WorldMark has allowed them to create priceless family memories and experiences. Your Vacation Planning Center, Reservations, Owner Services, Travel and Exchange departments share a deep dedication to delivering exceptional customer service at each owner interaction. Service lives at the top of minds and is reinforced through continu- ous agent training, leadership training, WEST survey results and the new Wyndham At Your Service (WAYS) monitoring tool. • Agent Training Regularly scheduled agent training keeps our teams updated on accurate resort and program information while focusing on delivering great experiences to owners. • Leadership Training In addition to operational leadership training, we realize that taking care of our employees means taking care of our owners. We encourage our employees to go above and beyond, and to do whatever it takes. • Wyndham Electronic Satisfaction Tracking (WEST) This electronic survey is much more comprehensive than the surveys of the past and allows owners to share service experiences directly with management. • Wyndham At Your Service (WAYS) WAYS allows supervisors to monitor calls according to specific criteria and enables them to expeditiously resolve any service issues or concerns. At all levels of WorldMark, we embrace and commit to deliver these service values to you, our Owners: Be Respectful, Be Responsive and Deliver Great Experiences Every Day. We live these values internally as well, with a keen awareness that the culture will extend to each and every guest interaction. Your feedback is vitally important and enables us to deliver an excellent experience with every phone call or email. Please be certain to complete your WEST surveys — for both your vacation planning experiences and your resort stays — as your feedback al- lows us to consistently improve the service we provide you, our most important assets, our owners. 4 DESTINATIONS | April 2008 Nominations Open for Senior Vice President, WorldMark by Wyndham, WorldMark Board of Directors Hospitality Division Dave Herrick Editor in Chief Ruth Shively Senior Editor ominations are now being accepted for the 2009 WorldMark Board of Directors.

CONTRIBUTERS TO THIS Story and Photos by Chick Cavallero ISSUE: Every November a strange event takes place at www.allaboutbluesmusic.com, eTown Hall in Boulder- The Otis Taylor Trance Chick Cavallero, Peter Blues Jam Festival-an event as unique as Otis "Blewzzman" Lauro, Gary Taylor is himself. Musicians of all ages and skill levels have a chance to play & learn with a list of Guesnier, Michael Mark, International musicians. Otis draws from his Wayne Goins, Wikipedia, https://www.otistaylor.com/ musician friends like guitarist Mato Nanji, from tuneoftheday.blogspot.com Indigenous, sacred steel master Chuck Campbell, keyboardist Brian Juan, drummer Larry Thompson, cellist Beth Rosbach (yes, CELLIST), folk musician Harry Tufts, bassist Todd Edmunds, vocal teacher Rex Peoples, and daughter Cassie Taylor who has taken up the banjo. But this is no traditional music festival, at TBJF the participants aren’t passive spectators they become the 1 stars of the show. Otis Taylor’s approach is to encourage and inspire people to create music together. More of a workshop than a festival, it allows players of all types, ages, and ability levels to partake in the amazing experience of creating music together. Regardless of what instrument someone plays, they all manage to mesh together and create music-in the past TBJF has included vocalists, guitars, tubas, keyboards, pianos, harmonicas, oboes, banjos, flutes, cellos, drums, violins, recorders, tambourines, maracas, mandolins bout anything and everything yo can imagine.
