Cheat Sheets from Great Books From Unreasonable Hospitality 1. Let your energy impact the people you’re talking to, not the other way around. 2. The human desire to be taken care of never goes away. 3. The way you do one thing is the way you do everything.

“People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.”- Maya Angelou Consider a time when a company made you feel truly positive. For me, the Four Seasons has left an indelible mark, earning its place as my top choice for accommodations worldwide. Now, reflect on how you can evoke similar feelings with your own brand. Does it mean distinguishing your brand in a crowded market? Or creating a genuine competitive edge? How can you achieve this? In “Unreasonable Hospitality”, co-owner of Eleven Madison Park Will Guidara argues that true hospitality surpasses meeting expectations; it involves exceeding them in ways that are both surprising and profoundly meaningful. He asserts that by fostering a culture of empathy, generosity, and creativity, businesses can establish authentic connections with customers and enhance the overall experience. These hospitality ideas don’t need to be ground breaking but rather answer the question of how to make our clients feel good… One example he uses that sets their team apart is by asking a simple question: How did you arrive at the restaurant? If they say they drove, they would take care of their metered parking so they can sit, relax and enjoy their dinner without any distractions. At Oromo, we specialize in delivering such experiences for our clients. Do you want your brand to stand out and change the conversation? Contact us to find out how.

To my fellow hospitalians, Unforgettable service doesn’t have to be anything big or orchestrated. Unforgettable service can happen every day with almost every guest. It’s about having a growth mindset. It’s in the way you learn from each table, each guest, each interaction. It’s how you reflect and use information learned with subsequent guests, maybe information regarding a certain dish or potential preferences. It’s how you observe, ask questions and use the feedback to provide intuitive service in the little things, consistently throughout their dining experience. (“I’m really thirsty!” - pay extra attention to their water level) It’s not rocket science. It’s having a desire to get better every day. It’s not putting too much pressure on yourself, but looking to be 1% better today than you were yesterday. Those 1 percents add up… It’s about learning from every issue, so that you can anticipate for your guests, and give them the experience and connection they didn’t know they needed. It’s reflected in the satisfaction you get from their feedback that lets you know you’re giving incredible service to your guests! #mindset #setyourmind #guestfocused #setyourselfupforsuccess #focus #thoughtshavepower #success #work #hospitalityhealth #comprehensivehospitality #elitehospitality #elevatedhospitality #hospitality #business #team #training #consistencymatters #foundationalhealth #organizationalhealth #perfectingthebasics #teamstrength #onepercentbetter #welcomeelevated
