How does hospitality fit into the workplace? Oxford Dictionary defines hospitality as “the friendly and generous reception and entertainment of guests.” Hospitality doesn’t always have to involve food, but food is one of the things that brings people together more than anything else. Ever brought donuts or bagels to the office for people to enjoy? It’s also a great way to get people talking. Offices can be a tough place to get beyond the surface with people, but it has to start somewhere. Donuts are a great door opener. #liveoutward Will you?

Did you know these 3 facts about round table events? The term "round table" originates from the legend of King Arthur, where the round shape symbolised equality, as it had no head, implying that everyone sitting around it had an equal say. With the rise of remote work and virtual meetings, round table events have adapted to online formats. We're getting with the times! Round tables are versatile and can be used in various environments such as private dining areas, conference rooms, and event spaces. They also come in various sizes, typically seating anywhere from four to twelve people comfortably! 📞 0203 105 0872 📧 lshadwell@tailoredroundtables.co.uk 💻 tailoredroundtables.co.uk #roundtables #upcomingevent #exclusiveevent

What does intention sound like, look like, feel like? This. Too many people think that the important KPI (Key Performance Indicator) is all metrics and spreadsheets, dry stats. Nope. The #1 KPI is Human Connection. Do you feel seen, valued, heard? Do you welcome and want all people - I mean ALL - at your table? Are you focused on fostering a culture of belonging? The video below is a prime example of intention in action. All of the good humans in the room we're brought together by the brilliance and simplicity of the Northstar Meetings Group to match make hospitality and properties. There are a LOT of tendrils of impact and people who are related beyond those two arenas (people like, you know, professional speakers like me and Candy Campbell who both keynoted last week). The curated, invite, vetted and intention that was on display and inaction was impressive to me. I'd long heard about 'hosted buyer' events - and I think my bar was set to HIGH with this one! Michael Shapiro, Samantha Hammer, James Antaky Nicole Goddeyne, SDLT + made is well-run, well-run. They made being the opening keynote speaker on the last day smooth, easy and extra fun! Props to the AV team at the Paséa Hotel & Spa - Raymond, Paul(surfs up!), Kyle, Peter & the Service team providing delicious food and beverage service. Events will be memorable - in some way. Utilize the precious energy you have to channel it positively, enthusiastically with the intention of connecting people. It takes a village of people to create a true space of belonging, and it all starts with 1 person. So, what's your KPI? If it's a number, you're doing it wrong. if it's one person at a time, fostering the beautiful belonging we all so deeply crave, then you're doing it right. Make your KPI = ROC - Return On Connection - and you'll take care of people, place and planet all the better. Thanks Northstar & Guests ~ let's keep the fun rockin' 🤘🏼 #hospitality #events #eventplanners #DestinationCalifornia #poweredbyconnection
