Pictures of guests checking in during the next shift are shown with any notations about their preferences plus any notes about their last stay. I would guess there is a different focus with different teams with bell staff, concierge and front desk focused on arrivals since they will be the first point of contact.
Pretty much all hotels have an AM and PM “pass-on” (usually sent via email) that covers most of those things (minus discussing ALL arrivals) + a morning meeting for managers.
Smaller and more luxury properties do indeed go much deeper and discuss all guests preferences, allergies, activities, etc. How else do you think all the Aman staff know you went on that tour today?
