Guiding Principles
Ashford embraces five guiding principles which we believe best describe what our company stands for: ethical, innovative, profitable, engaging and tenacious. Our guiding principles are more than just a catchy phrase or slogan, they are a way of doing business. Our adherence to these standards is a key component in building a reputation of excellence and integrity.
Philanthropic Spirit
One of our Five Guiding Principles is to be Engaging. The focus of this principle is for Ashford to be an active partner and contributor to our surrounding community and to positively support organizations that assist those less fortunate. Our major company-wide philanthropic events are our Community Service Day (Spring) and Holiday Events Participation (Winter). In addition, throughout the year, we encourage associates to be mindful of community contributions and we financially support many charitable causes in our markets.
