Stanford's unique, non-traditional management style contributes significantly to its overall success. Stanford hires experienced managers and invests them with the authority and responsibility for day-to-day operations. However, services and expertise that are normally too costly to exist within every hotel are available from the corporate office. These support services include project management, accounting support, sales and marketing support, information technology, Legal, Human Reources, landscape architecture and interior lighting design, among others. The results - lower overhead plus timely response to individual needs and rapid decisions for solutions.
