Sponsored by Bizimply, the people management solution for hospitality.

Key Takeaways

  • Word-of-mouth and community engagement are more valuable for creative and hospitality businesses, building authentic relationships that drive lasting success.
  • Recruiting for personality and cultural alignment rather than purely technical expertise significantly reduces staff turnover and creates stronger, more cohesive teams.
  • Active participation in local business networks transforms isolated hospitality ventures into collaborative partnerships, opening doors to shared opportunities and mutual support.
