Why do some hospitality teams stay for 20 or 30 years…
while others walk out after a few months?
Something doesn’t add up.
In this upcoming episode of Talking Hospitality, we take a hard look at staff retention in hospitality — and what leaders might be getting wrong.
Timothy R Andrews and Joe McDonnell sit down with John Herity, who’s spent decades building teams where people actually stay.
What he shares is simple… but not easy.
It’s not about pay.
It’s not about perks.
It’s about how people are treated — every single day.
If you lead a team, run a business, or are wondering why keeping good people feels harder than ever… this one might hit a nerve.
