This is a wonderful episode with two people who know how to 'do better'.
Jamo's perspective as a business owner serving customers in his community directly is a welcome voice to show us what 6 stars means in practice and in action. Anthony gave us an extension of that from the inside of a business and his experience helping business owners to tap into the magic that Jamo carries inside him naturally.
Here's a snapshot of what we discussed:
17:24 - you’ve got to find the right people
28:14 - building people up with confidence is key
40:25 - the importance of tapping into the emotional connection of WHY
42:45 - how do you ensure your staff deliver a 5 or 6 star experience in your absence?
51:47 - focus on what you can control, to the best you can
