On Thursday, the fair announced the selection of 34 projects— all that would fit in the 60,000-square-foot Grand Ballroom atop the Miami Beach Convention Center. (Actually, only 33 fit inside. An installation by Jose Davila will be staged outdoors on the convention center’s north side.)

What is Hospitality Operations Manager?
Hospitality operations managers are the go-to team leaders in a business. They help various departments and team members within a company and coordinate to meet the end goal. Every business needs them, especially the hospitality and food and beverage industries. Their job includes leading a large team, hiring and firing people, negotiating contracts, coordinating staff, implement revenue management operations, provide sales staff, responsible for assuring operational and financial performance goals are met, understanding general business operations and guiding work teams for projects. They also make strategic decisions about what clients are likely to need and at what times, create company policies that help the staff operate efficiently. The COO duties vary widely and depend on each client’s property needs. Overall, they manage the day-to-day activities of the full-time division, assuring that all functions are covered appropriately, orders are filled successfully, and all support processes are fulfilled timely. “Operations is the heart of most companies because the operations department actually gets the job that the company needs to get done,” says Ricardo Michelangeli, CEO of RMG Staffing. The Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests substantial employment growth for operations managers between 2016 and 2026, especially in the restaurants and other eating places as well as management of companies and enterprises.

RMG Staffing Celebrates 10 Years of Providing Great Service
Time definitely flies. When RMG Staffing first started out our office was quite small. You could have counted the total number of our team with one hand. The year was 2008 and quite honestly, it was the worst year for anyone to start a business due to the financial crisis brought on by the real estate bubble of that previous year. But despite the harsh economic circumstances, Ricardo Michelangeli foresaw an opportunity to make money and also provide jobs to a city that was in desperate need of economic recovery. “People thought I was crazy,” RMG Staffing President Ricardo Michelangeli expresses about his companies early beginnings. “And it was very difficult starting out.” According to Mr. Michelangeli the atmosphere of the staffing industry in South Florida was doing as bad as the rest of the economy ten years ago. Events in Miami were few so therefore companies were not looking for staffing agencies to provide them with anything. Also, the hotels were experiencing a great number of low occupancies. Tourists continued to visit the city and its beaches but they were doing so in low volumes. But Mr. Michelangeli knew businesses were eventually going to recover, and he also knew South Florida was missing a staffing agency that operated as a boutique and yet had the networking reach as a large corporate entity. “Getting our first client wasn’t as difficult as keeping them,” Mr. Michelangeli explains. “Though we certainly knew what we were doing, growth requires learning. Problem-solving requires us to think outside the box and in doing so, you have to be honest with yourself. You have to know when to ask for help. You have to be open to making mistakes, which makes it easier to find ways to fix them. We certainly made mistakes in the beginning but because of our passion, the long hours at a small office and our resilience to provide great service to our initial clients we were able to succeed. Look at us now.” In its ten years of existence, RMG Staffing has grown from a tiny office with a small staff to a boutique agency that functions as a large corporation and has a large staff occupying a grand office space in Miami’s luxurious metropolitan Brickell neighborhood. Also, RMG Staffing’s client list has certainly exploded in growth. From small companies to large corporations, hotels hosting cute gatherings to big events, RMG Staffing has provided excellent services to various clients. “I have had the pleasure of working with RMG Staffing as our preferred vendor for over 8 years for staffing needs for our hotel as well as one of our sister properties. Everyone at RMG Staffing understands our specific culture and what we are looking for in service delivery and he or she works to fill the needs properly the first time. Our collaborative relationship makes doing business together easy and effortless,” Jeff Klein says about the company. “Working with RMG Staffing has been an enjoyable experience that I plan on continuing for many years to come.” Ten years and counting and the best is still yet to come.
RMG Staffing Celebrates MLS in Miami
Miami is finally getting its own MLS soccer. The news came in mid-February that retired European soccer star David Beckham was awarded his major-league franchise after a long four-year battle with local leaders for a possible site. Contact us for more information about RMG Staffing or hiring us for your next event in Miami, Fl! “It is with tremendous pride that we welcome Miami to Major League Soccer,” MLS Commissioner Don Garber said in a press release. “With David Beckham, Marcelo Claure, Jorge and José Mas, Masayoshi Son and Simon Fuller leading the way, we know the right people are in place and the time is right for Miami to become a great Major League Soccer city. This ownership is committed to bringing Miami the elite-level soccer team, stadium, and fan experience it richly deserves. We look forward to working with the entire organization on a strategic and successful launch for Miami’s MLS club.” Beckham and the group behind the team won approval to build a proposed 25,000-seat soccer stadium on the western edge of Overtown. Though their authorization has been granted, they still have some regulatory hurdles to overcome. These obstacles include land-use changes, rezoning, and the permanent closure of a road that has a busy intersection. Also, final approval depends on environmental review and a hearing conducted by board members of elected officials. This hearing is set to open to the public. Since the soccer stadium is being fully financed by private funds and won’t be backed by tax dollars, the public is very supportive of the stadium’s site. “Our pledge to our fans in Miami and around the world is simple: your team will always strive to make you proud on the pitch, our stadium will be a place that you cherish visiting, and our impact in the community and on South Florida’s youth will run deep,” David Beckham stated during the press conference that was held to announce the proposed stadium site. Beckham’s road to making MLS in Miami wasn’t easy. His original plan was to have a site next to Miami Heat’s American Airlines Arena. Due to the potential to have catastrophic effects on Downtown Miami’s traffic and the enclosure of a bay view, the plans were scrapped. Beckham and his group then sought a site next to the Miami Marlins’ stadium. Those plans were also scrapped due to the foreseen horror of too much traffic in the area. The proposed Overtown site for the stadium is less densely populated. “I love soccer,” head of Talent Acquisition for RMG Staffing Vanessa Yepes stated. “I grew up watching soccer so having our own team makes me so proud to live in South Florida.” So how will MLS impact us in Miami? The first thing it will do is boost our local sports scene. Miami has a large number of residents from Latin America who love soccer. Having a team of our own will allow us to combine the love we have for our community with the love we have for soccer. The second major impact MLS in Miami will have is the improvement of the local Overtown area. For decades, city leaders have been weighing options to how they can improve the Overtown area. The proposed site will bring jobs to the local community and bring other businesses such as restaurants and create a much-needed nightlife that will also benefit the new condo developments in the area. “Our pledge to our fans in Miami and around the world is simple: your team will always strive to make you proud on the pitch, our stadium will be a place that you cherish visiting, and our impact in the community and on South Florida’s youth will run deep,” Beckham went on to say at the news conference. Since the MLS site isn’t finalized, Beckham and his group have the option to continue to seek other locations in the city. Latest reports from the Miami Herald suggest the group is also looking into the Pepsi distribution center in Doral, the city golf course near Miami International Airport and land inside Hialeah Park and Casino. No matter what they group eventually decides, get ready Miami MLS is definitely coming to our wonderful city. For more details, visit MLS Soccer’s Website.

Your Commute Might Be Improving
We all can agree, the traffic in Miami is a total nightmare. No matter where you live, to get from point A to B usually takes a very long time and if you’re on the road during rush hour your chances in getting to where you need to go in a timely manner go from slim to none. Largely populated cities such as New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles have public transportation systems to help reduce the number of traffic pileups and Miami is one of the top five most populated cities in the country yet we are literally at the bottom when it comes to the efficiency of our public buses and trains. The outlook of South Florida’s public transportation system is so grim that city leaders have been scrambling to find solutions to alleviate commuters from future traffic nightmares. “As a person who commutes in and out of busy Brickell,” RMG Staffing President Ricardo Michelangeli expressed, “I experience bad traffic on a daily basis. Our local government needs to find both short and long-term solutions to Miami’s traffic problems. The longer it takes for employees to get to work the less productive and unhappy they will be at their jobs.” The Miami Herald recently published an article about Miami-Dade’s Mayor Carlos Gimenez traveling to China in search of a cheaper alternative to the Metrorail. Traveling with a group of 50-plus elected officials, county administrators, lobbyists, property developers, the 14-day trip itinerary will focus on a train factory in Zhuzhou, China, where the delegates will get a chance to observe the Chinese factory that is building “a ‘virtual train’ — it’s a rubber-wheeled vehicle (like a bus) that would be able to use autonomous steering to follow painted lines on regular highways alongside automobile traffic,” according to the Miami Herald. The Chinese company built the train in June of last year and Mayor Gimenez and his delegates will get a chance to see the train in action. Also on the itinerary is a stop in Hong Kong, where Mayor Gimenez and company with various other executives in the airline and film industry. Their trip to Japan includes a ride on a high-speed train. Other initiatives involving the private sectors include Brightline, the only privately funded express inter-city passenger rail service in the United States. The company will have two new trains that will provide service in South Florida later this year. The express inter-city passenger service will connect Downtown Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach, with connecting service to Orlando in the next phase. The Downtown Miami terminal is called “MiamiCentral,” and will incorporate retail and office space and will eventually come to include 800 rental units of residency that will open in 2019. The company is also completing a set of rental apartments on the site of their West Palm Beach location. Future plans also include residential apartments near their Ft. Lauderdale terminal. Tri-Rail, which is operated by South Florida Regional Transportation Authority, will continue to separately run its Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach rail line. A ticket on Brightline from Miami to Ft. Lauderdale will cost more than Tri-Rail but will be faster due to their direct destination. Joe Sous is a healthcare executive who works for Miami Jewish Health System in east Miami-Dade County. He lives in Boca Raton and his commute usually averages to 90 minutes each way on Tri-Rail. The new Brightline train will dramatically reduce the time it takes for him to complete a full commute. “It’s only 50 miles door to door, but it’s not the miles that matter, it’s the time,” Sous admitted to the Miami Herald. “How long does [the] commute take from point to point on the train versus by car? We will look at everything, but the Brightline is an enticement for those of us who like suburban areas, or want to live north.” The future of public transportation in South Florida will definitely improve but only time will tell to what degree those improvements will be made.
RMG Staffs Miami’s Biggest New Year’s Eve Party: Justin Bieber LIVE at the Fontainebleau
All over the world, New Year’s Eve is about one thing – celebrating – and here at RMG Staffing, celebrations are what we’re all about. So to close 2016, we went out with a bang and staffed one of the year’s biggest parties. When the Fontainebleau Miami Beach decided to ring in 2017 with a blowout Justin Bieber concert, they called us here at RMG Staffing (one of their most reliable vendors!) to help it go off without a hitch. And, of course, we gladly obliged. I mean… how could we miss the biggest party of the year? A poolside NYE party so amazing we just had to relive it again. Were you there to see #JustinBieber? Sponsored by Belvedere Vodka, this epic, one-night-only event was just what you’d expect from an international hotspot like Miami Beach: glamorous, star-studded, packed, and above all, one heck of a party. Taking place by the Fontainebleau Miami Beach pool, Justin Bieber performed his biggest hits – like “Where Are You Now,” “Sorry” and “Love Yourself” – in front of a crowd of his best fans and A-list friends. And considering packages for the event were selling for as much as $500,000 a piece (yes, you read that right), it’s no surprise the hotel’s countdown to the New Year was nothing short of a spectacle. At one point, Skrillex and Marshmello joined “the Biebs” onstage, and celebrities like Jeremy Piven, La La Anthony and Jonathan Cheban, came to celebrate right along with them. After the concert, the party continued at LIV, where Justin and Skrillex performed and the champagne flowed all night long. As for us, we had one job for the night: make sure the guests were taken care of. That means handling everything from setting up and breaking down all the beverage stations and VIP tables, acting as VIP hostesses and serving bottles to VIP tables, to whipping up drinks behind the bar, serving as bar backs, and managing and staffing the event as a whole. We put together a crew of about 140 staff members and coordinators to make it all happen. Having worked with the Fontainebleau Miami Beach for many years now, we understood the high standard of professionalism and service they required for this event and always, as well as our shared goals of hiring only those individuals who provide the highest levels of luxury, enthusiasm, energy and service. We brought all of those qualities there with us on New Year’s Eve through our proficient staff, and are proud to say that the night went as smoothly as our client and our company anticipated. To get the opportunity to work with high-caliber clients like Fontainebleau Miami Beach, we at RMG had to have already established a reputation for success. Over the years, we have staffed some of South Florida’s most prestigious events, like concerts, DJ festivals, celebrity weddings, galas and political, even Presidential affairs. We’ve staffed many of the Fontainebleau Miami Beach’s weekend concerts, Drake concerts, Madonna’s Art Basel concert and fundraiser at the Faena Miami Beach, two evenings hosted by Former President Barack Obama at the JW Marriott Marquis, Art Basel parties, and many other corporate events and soirées. We’re proud of what we do, and how well we do it, and nothing makes us happier than being entrusted to support sought-after parties like this one, the revered Fontainebleau’s own NYE bash, and getting only the best feedback as a result. And with that, here’s to 2017, staffers! Remember us for any events you’re planning or staffing jobs you need this year. We can’t wait to see what these next 12 months have in store for all of us – so let’s make it a good one. For more information, please call (305) 890-1562 or send us an email: info@rmgstaffing.com
