Have you ever wondered how to stop getting ghosted? How to build meaningful relationships? How to get people to actually want to talk to you?

I believe the secret lies in the story Steve Carran told in Episode 86 of The Hotel Collective.

Here's my breakdown of what he had to say.

Our guest today is Steve Carran. Voted one of the 100 Most Powerful People in US Hospitality, Steve has been lucky to work at a few of hospitality’s most exciting startups. He has grown a passion for not only hotels, but also the technology that helps them become better. Currently he is the Co-Host of The Modern Hotelier podcast and sits on the board for the Southern Colorado HSMAI chapter in Colorado Springs. In his spare time you can find Steve playing pickleball, hiking or camping with his wife, dog and cat!

Today Steve discusses the story behind The Modern Hotelier and how that rocket launched him into amazing networking opportunities. He shares the most powerful strategy he's learned, which is more about people than it is about anything else. Steve teaches how having real conversations and building meaningful relationships is at the center of everything in hospitality. We hope you enjoy!
