Jason's Topics

Closing the Gap Between Customer Expectations & Operator Execution In Your Brand - Workshop

In the hospitality Industry the gap between customer experience and company execution can be dangerously miles apart. These gaps build frustration and loss of trust in the customer, with the company, and with the operators, causing everyone to lose focus on the most important aspects of our business. The connection. All of the touchpoints the customer has with us are created equally. Either we exceed them, or we don’t.

What’s the one thing that every manager needs to be a leader? Followers. A Team. Their A-Team. The challenge? Managers have regressed in the soft skills needed to develop their teams because of changes to their own patterns of management. This regression escalated during the pandemic, widening the gap of effective leaders in the field. Get what it means to understand the B.I.G. picture in connecting the reality of your goals with the reality in your business.

Leading with The Right Mindset: Managing vs Leading vs Coaching

The average hospitality professional will act in all three facets multiple times a day to reach positive results for their team/s. The trick is knowing which mindset and methodology is appropriate for the given situation. Unknowingly most of your teams’ underperforming results are based on not knowing the differences between the three. Even with those that know the three mindsets, they can still over-commit to stay within just one. I can tell you, it is not one versus the other, but a balance of all three.

Jason will walk you through the fundamentals of when to use a management style, versus leadership style, versus a coach mentality, and build a productive team through the power of relationships.
