CEO Kristina Bouweiri on Motivation

Monday, January 30th, 2012

Reston Limousine CEO Kristina Bouweiri had the honor recently of appearing on a Washington Business Journal poll of the Most Motivational CEO, and so we asked her to share her business advice on motivating those around her.

“I motivate, I think, women in business because I’m the largest limousine service in Washington and the 17th largest in the country so as a woman in a male-dominated industry I believe I  motivate and inspire women in business, and I do everything possible to help them including hosting a monthly networking lunch for women in business in the greater Washington area.

“I motivate my employees by being kind, approachable and having an open door policy. And even though I have 300 employees I believe we treat everyone as family and they feel as if they are part of the bigger picture of a company that has a mission to be the best company in the city. We don’t want to be the most expensive, we don’t want to be the least expensive, we want to be the company that is known for providing excellent service at reasonable prices and that we have a very big heart and we provide transportation for those in need and we give back as much as we can.”

Congratulations to The Inn at Little Washington are in order, as its  record 24-year 5 Diamond restaurant rating from AAA remains unbroken!

See DC smallNorth America’s largest motoring and leisure travel organization unveiled its 2012 Five Diamond Lodgings list was unveiled recently, and the esteemed resort’s restaurant remains securely in place.

Led by chef and proprietor Patrick O’Connell, The Inn at Little Washington’s restaurant is a “food fantasy,” according to Washington Post restaurant critic Tom Sietsma. “The only reason I know I’m not in a chateau in France is that everyone in this gilded oasis is speaking English.”

Here, we see the Chef’s play on the classic Wellington, using tuna in place of beef. The fish was wonderful, a great combination of cooked and rare, and came enrobed in enchanting layers of crispy potato. The tuber’s almost hash brown-like savor played the part of a fantastic foil to the fish, adding superb starchy and salty notes to the dish–I wanted more!
