When most people hear the word hospitality, they think of hotels, resorts, restaurants, or events. But hospitality (or lack of it) is something we experience every day. It's the feeling of being taken care of. It's knowing someone has thought through the details before you even ask. It's feeling seen, valued, and supported. That's also exactly how most of us want to feel when we're working with a coach, service provider, consultant, or team. In this episode, I'm joined by Melissa Rodriguez, small business operations coach and event specialist at One Team Partners. With more than a decade of experience in hospitality and event production, Melissa brings a unique perspective to business operations, leadership, client experience, and team culture. We dive into the surprising overlap between hospitality and online business, why your people are your most valuable asset, and how thoughtful systems can help you create better experiences for both your clients and your team.
