Episode Highlights:

• Introduction to Hospitality in Coworking: We kick things off by exploring why hospitality is just as crucial in our coworking spaces as it is in the hotel industry. It's about creating experiences that stick and spaces where people feel truly welcomed.

• A Personal Tale of Hotel Hospitality: I share my own story of incredible service during a hotel stay - from the effortless help with finding the best local sandwiches to sorting out ski rentals and even snagging a ride to the airport. It was service with a smile, but more importantly, it was personal and responsive.
