Session Outline
When most people think of hospitality, they think of an industry related to restaurants and hotels. This narrows the definition of hospitality to a professional domain, excluding the everyday person from it. However, the concept of hospitality is far more inclusive. It encompasses everyone: from those in customer service to those who are not client-facing. Hospitality, at the heart of it, is an attitude of welcoming others. When done right, it becomes a key to better connections and improved happiness.
Gain an in-depth look into the psychology of hospitality and its transformative power. Join Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener, a pioneer and thought leader in the field of positive psychology, and access exclusive insights into his latest research on the subject. This session will explore the history of hospitality, as well as many of the cross-cultural findings related to it, such as collectivism and reputation.
*Limited seats available. Registration closes on 18 April 2024!
