SPI Sales Director Stephen Green, who submitted the winning nomination, will accept on behalf of SPI. As Stephen wrote, “Gordon has proven himself to be a leader in the Vacation Ownership industry for over thirty years. He has led by example, supported our industry, and continually leads our company through challenging times. He always puts our customers first, communicates with all employees what our company mission is, and has always been willing to mentor and assist both our employees and customers.”

This year Gordon had the opportunity to apply customer care skills time and time again. Empathy is an often undervalued leadership trait, but Gordon’s genuine concern for clients under duress in 2020 made him once again stand out as a role model.

Every year since 2016, the CustomerCount Customer Engagement Professional (CEP) Resort Trades Award has been bestowed upon team members involved in the vacation ownership (timeshare) industry. Open to all resort/hospitality industry professionals, the award nominations utilize CustomerCount software in the nomination and judging process. The nominations are reviewed “blindly” by an expert panel of timeshare industry executives including Howard Bendell, Scott Bahr, Angela Ward, Darla Zanini, and Ed McMullen Jr.

Two other important resort industry professionals placed 2nd and 3rd in the tight competition. The first runner up was Scott Bryant, Senior Director UAT and Implementations/Hilton Grand Vacations. The 3rd runner up for the CEP Award was the very popular bellboy at Club Regina Los Cabos, Edelberto Soto.

According to Robert Kobek RRP, president of CustomerCount, the nominees truly exemplify what this award is all about. “Acknowledging Gordon and SPI’s service to the industry and contributions to making customer service and engagement easy is very rewarding. We are proud to honor them as our 2020 winners.”

Sharon Wilson, RRP, publisher of Resort Trades, said, “Gordon’s CEP Award is so well deserved! We are looking forward to ‘officially’ presenting the trophy on the Resort Trades Learning Center.”
