How you treat your employees affects how your employees treat your customers.
If we take that idea one step further, the way you treat your employees impacts how employees treat each and every stakeholder of your business, which is a key drive of your success. That’s where the notion of hospitality comes in to keynote speaker Susan Salgado’s engagements.
Hospitality implicitly means that everyone—friends, family, and strangers alike—are welcomed and feel a true sense of belonging. When we apply this idea in business, the result, is an inclusive model of business that emphasizes building relationships as a means to thrive.
If you want your employees at every level to engage in the success of your business, your leaders must do more than manage daily operations. Instead, leaders must create a culture of caring, where everyone takes care of everyone. It is only then that employees will be inspired to deliver excellence and empathy to your customers, each other, and every other stakeholder of your business.
Borrowing from years of experience in Danny Meyer’s NYC-based organization, keynote speaker Susan Salgado will share concrete examples of how the hospitality shown to employees creates an environment that motivates employees to give their best back to the company.
Your stakeholders expect your business to deliver quality products and services. It’s thoughtful, caring hospitality that will distinguish your company from the competition. By focusing on creating a culture of hospitality at work, your earned brand loyalty will lead to increased market share, repeat business, valuable vendor relationships, increased profitability, and a team of happy employees who will be loyal apostles of your brand.
It takes business 12 positive experiences to compensate for 1 negative experience.
