On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Sean McCarron, General Manager at the Conrad Orlando, about why the magic of any resort is in the people who give it soul. We talk about building a team and a culture that inspires. As Sean explains, there is one team, one mission and one goal. We also discuss external collaborations and partnerships that have been successful for the Conrad Orlando, including partnerships with local attractions, shopping malls and nonprofits. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why Sean believes building a strong team culture is the single most important factor for guest satisfaction and operational success What makes Conrad Orlando and the larger Evermore Orlando Resort stand out in a highly competitive market, including innovative amenities and guest experiences How collaboration between different elements of the resort, Hilton's leadership, and external partners enhances the overall guest experience What specific team engagement strategies Sean uses, such as staff-led naming contests and regular roundtable meetings, to create a sense of ownership and empowerment among employees How Conrad Orlando successfully builds partnerships with local attractions, shopping malls, and nonprofits to connect guests to the broader community and deliver added value Why Sean sees creativity and collaboration as inseparable drivers of innovation and memorable guest experiences in the luxury hospitality sector Creating a Team-First Culture For Sean McCarron, culture is the foundation, which is why at the core of Conrad Orlando's success is a relentless focus on team members. As Sean explains, “Every single position is as important as the next. It's a wheel and an engine, and if any part isn't working, the engine doesn't work.” Satisfied, empowered employees are the primary drivers of exceptional guest experiences, especially when serving the top 3-5% of the global travel market. Sean's philosophy centers around creating an environment where employees not only have the support and training to excel but also feel valued and heard. One standout initiative is his monthly meeting with representatives from every department (excluding management), which provides an open forum for sharing feedback, new ideas, and operational insights. Whether it's naming contests to create a sense of ownership over new features like the cafeteria or relaxation area, or soliciting frontline input on guest experiences, empowerment at Conrad is far more than lip service. Designing Experiences that Inspire Opening the flagship Conrad Orlando was an opportunity to reimagine the guest journey from the ground up. Sean and his team took a collaborative, cross-departmental approach to sharing the resort's many assets. The goal was to create a “one resort” environment where guests are encouraged to explore, relax, and participate in a host of activities designed to rival the allure of central Florida's famous theme parks. Paddleboarding, kayaking, electric boat tours, and a variety of pools and beaches ensure guests have no shortage of options. Interestingly, Conrad Orlando has found that guests are now choosing to spend more time on the property itself, often splitting their stays between theme park visits and the activities offered on site—a testament to the resort's ability to foster a magnetic in-resort community. Breaking Down Silos On and Off the Property Sean credits much of the property's success to a culture of collaboration, both internally and externally. From the earliest planning stages, teams across the Evermore campus shared inspiration, ideas, and strategies, supported by visionary ownership willing to empower creative autonomy. This allows guests to have a cohesive experience across the various components of the greater resort, but also in novel group activities and leisure amenities. But the collaborative spirit extends beyond the property lines. Conrad Orlando has forged impactful partnerships with local attractions such as Gatorland—bringing in baby alligators for the kids' club—and with upscale shopping destination Mall at Millenia, which hosts pop-up experiences poolside. The resort's group programming goes a step further in giving back, with team-building exercises like the “build a bike” scavenger hunt culminating in donations to local children's charities.

What do bedazzled Crocs, a jawless alligator, and "murder chickens" have in common? They all feature in this wild episode that captures the quirky essence of Florida living! We start by revealing the hidden dangers of stingray season in the Gulf and how Manny's habit of using safety instructions as rolling papers leads to some hilarious misunderstandings. Florida news doesn't disappoint as we recount the bizarre tale of an alligator being hurled through a drive-thru window, and then debate the contradictory combination of comfort and awkwardness found in Lena's stylish Crocs.Brace yourself for a weekend of adrenaline and giggles as we recount our daring escapades at Gatorland's Gatorpalooza. Imagine zip-lining over an alligator pit, meeting Jolene, the top-jawless alligator, and discussing the ethics of alligator breeding. But the thrill doesn't stop there—next, we navigate the intimidating cassowary sanctuary, where Manny's uneasy encounters with the "murder chickens" are sure to leave you in stitches. These adventures spark deeper reflections on our roles as alphas in the animal kingdom, blending excitement with introspection.The journey through our childhood memories brings a nostalgic yet humorous perspective on staying cool in the Florida heat. From portable fans to mischievous antics, we reminisce about simpler times spent outdoors compared to today's tech-savvy generation. We also share our unique hurricane prep rituals, the hilarious irony of last-minute water hoarding, and the anticipation for the Florida Man Games. To top it off, we even fantasize about stumbling upon a million-dollar package, blending humor with hypothetical scenarios that are as entertaining as they are imaginative.

When many people think of wildlife experts in Central Florida, they think of Savannah Boan. She is the Park Director and Crocodilian Enrichment Coordinator at Gatorland. But, if you ask her, what brought her to Central Florida was the allure of Disney World. “(I) ran away to Florida when I was 16 years old because I wanted to be Cinderella,” she said. “Of course, Disney doesn't hire 16-year-old runaways and I was way too tall to be Cinderella.” So she started applying to work at Gatorland. The gator pro said it took seven years to get a gig at the wildlife park and once she came on board she never looked back. “I'm so honored every day that I get to come to work with these amazing dinosaurs,” she said. Boan now focuses her time caring for alligators and crocodiles, working to protect their habitats and educating the community about the reptiles. She recently took Florida's Fourth Estate hosts Matt Austin and Ginger Gadsden around the wildlife park to talk about gator mating season. Learn more about your ad choices.
