America’s Greatest Private Clubs recognizes private clubs by industry accepted merit standards, including key rating factors, on-site and written evaluations.

PALM BEACH, FL, UNITED STATES, January 11, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Club Mangers Group unveils the America’s Greatest Private Clubs awards program which recognizes private clubs across the country by industry accepted merit standards, including key rating factors, on-site and written evaluations: all void of perceived influences based on individual professional staff or Board achievements. Year after year these five industry standards are the hallmark of the Club Managers Association of America education and training programs. Private clubs earning the designation will be announced quarterly with annual evaluation visits to determine continued eligibility.
Private country clubs will be solely rated on the 5 Foundations of Excellence which require sound governance practices by both the board and leadership as they collaborate to support and maintain the brand and mission:

• Facilities providing a distinguished standard of excellence in décor and maintenance.
• Leaders recognized with proven stability in delivering unwavering brand promise to their members.
• Consistent and extraordinary operations service execution.
• Industry recognition for traditions and innovation in setting club industry trends.
• Team culture inspired by pride resulting in a driven and relentless pursuit of excellence and success.

Craig D. Martin, CCM and founder of Club Managers Group shared, “It is time to recognize and reward those private clubs across America who routinely achieve the 5 Foundations of Excellence but go unrecognized for a variety of industry politics. Other appointed industry experts including myself will personally visit each private club, meet with the general manager, department heads, line staff and members. Intermixed with the interview process the private club will be evaluated on facility décor and maintenance.” Martin adds, “The America’s Greatest Private Clubs award is focused on creating an equitable recognition program for clubs to be evaluated based solely on their merits.”

America’s Greatest Private Club evaluators will consist of a volunteer panel of current and former private club general managers and other top Leaders from private clubs. The panel will be provided with specific criteria, rating parameters and a detailed evaluation form to aid in the assessment process. These ratings will used to compare qualifying private clubs against their regional peers to create a fair analysis and rating platform focused solely on the 5 Foundations of Excellence.
