Burnout and turnover are at an all-time high. Hospitality pioneer Taylor Scott proves a spirit of generosity is the key to bridging our divides and engaging the best in others regardless of our differences in this all-new business fable.

At a fundamental level, the purpose of leadership is to connect with and inspire the hearts and minds of others to become their absolute best so they can ultimately give the best of themselves at work, at home, and in their communities.

How do we do that?

Taylor Scott draws on his 20 plus years of experience working at hospitality industry leaders like Disney Parks and Resorts, Gaylord Hotels and Resorts, and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, to provide an inviting, accessible fable about adopting a spirit of generosity.

Give Hospitality tells the story of Summer Grace, who after leaving a toxic workplace that lacked inclusivity lands a new role at Kauwela Resorts—the home of five core values that empower its people to thrive. Her story charts how leaders in any industry can bring those values to life by purposefully giving compassion, encouragement, kindness, hospitality, and leadership.

Be inspired to embrace the game-changing power of giving and receiving hospitality, which in turn makes us happier, improves our health, strengthens our social bonds, evokes feelings of gratitude, and has a positive ripple effect in our communities.

Learn actionable principles for cultivating an environment where employees are happier and more engaged, and where they feel comfortable bringing their authentic selves to work.About the author
