This podcast clocks in at around 21 minutes. You can also listen to it on iTunes, stream on Google Podcasts, or Spotify or grab the RSS feed in your player of choice. So grab a cup of tea, open your window to let some fresh air in, and let Michael and I keep you company.

Michael Tingsager has “coined” a refined term for this situation. He calls it a “shitstorm.” 

But we all know that after the storm the sun will shine again. “Hospitality is going to come out on the other side of it and look very different,” he says.

Michael is a leadership coach and trainer, a trusted advisor, keynote speaker, and the host of The Hospitality Mavericks Podcast. He’s also the founder of The Hospitality Mavericks and the co-founder with a fellow Dane of The Bear Kitchen, a healthy and planet-friendly office lunches and event catering company based in London. 

Michael develops and grows hospitality and restaurant leaders to unleash their own and their cultures’ true potential to achieve impact and business results. He believes that we only can build businesses from the inside out––it's all about the people. You’re going to hear more about his philosophy and how he expects the hospitality sector to evolve in this new Homebound episode.

“There are opportunities for food brands that really understand how to take a stand and actually talk about more than just be a restaurant. They’ll answer that it’s going to be less about profit and more about people. Those brands will thrive.”
