The Standard is where Ahmet Can Yeşildağ writes about AI adoption, guest trust, and the future of service work — from thirty years operating hotels (Hilton, Marriott, Radisson and Titanic) across Türkiye, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia and Canada. He leads North American business development for Heyhotel AI through Greenmountains · Executive Consultancy, and is founder of Orophile, a fee-only advisory in longevity travel. Every essay pairs operational ground-truth with cited research — no hype.
