CEBU, Philippines - Cebu City’s only 5-star hotel, Marco Polo Plaza welcomes two accomplished individuals --- one in human resources and the other in technical services --- to its 5-star team.
Graduating Magna Cum Laude in the course of BS Psychology at the University of San Carlos, Cely Osumo has handled the “people business” for the last 15 years. She has placed her thumb mark on the academe, as well as the manufacturing business before she ventured into the hospitality industry in 2009, making Marco Polo her first stepping stone in the capacity of L&G manager.
After almost two year of self-development in a corporate set-tup in another service industry, Cely returns to Marco Polo as Human Resources Manager. She has enriched herself with a good background of ISO Total Quality Management implementation as well as completed the course on the Zenger-Miller working program. With these new found skills, Cely will be reorienting the MPPC Team on the next level of the human aspect of the hotel business.
