Mon, 09 May 2022 - 30 - "OPEN DOOR INITIATIVE – Helping Ukrainian Refugees Find Accommodation Solutions"
A non-profit webinar initiative entitled‘Open Door’was held on Friday 1st April 2022 to raise awareness for the various projects providing accommodation solutions to aid the grave Ukrainian refugee crisis currently affecting many European states. The hospitality sector is already supporting the refugee crisis in numerous ways and the webinar brought together representatives from several initiatives to talk about their projects, discuss the challenges they face, and to identify how others can help and contribute. Open Door was hosted by the hosts of the Hospitality Resilience Series (which was a series of webinars with experts to help hospitality professionals be in a better place to get through the Covid-19 crisis): Jonathan Humphries, HoCoSo; Jon Hazan, Atlas Events; and Chris Mumford, Cervus Leadership Consulting. The hope is that this simple initiative can boost the profile of these desperately needed humanitarian projects to all countries across Europe, helping those currently operating or those who want to help but are not sure how to do so.

Now, more than ever, the structure of an organization, its strategy, culture and especially its leadership, need to be dynamic, subtle and tangible.Our special guest on this session, Patrick Ghielmetti,explains why the two styles of leadership are so different and what impact they may have on our daily life. Using real-life examples, he sets the scene for everyone to be able to relate and use these techniques in order to embark on a journey of personal development and inner-resilience.

Wed, 31 Mar 2021 - 13 - "The future of Sleep: How to reduce stress and improve your personal performance" with Yadid Ayzenberg - Part of the Hospitality Resilience Series
Welcome to the fourth installment of the Hospitality Resilience Series .
Jonathan Humphries , Chris Mumford and Jon Hazan are joined by Yadid Ayzenberg, Global head of Sleep devices and Director at BOSE Corporation .
In this session on The Future of Sleep, Yadid introduces us to the importance of sleep and its effects on our health and performance in the short and long term. A person needs to have a good sleep cycle in order to be optimally productive. Whether you can train your body and mind to need less sleep is but a myth. So many misconceptions exist around sleep but here's what you need to do to develop good habits and get a better night's sleep.
Yadid also introduces us to the Sleepbuds II: Bose's new wireless earbuds that deliver relaxing sounds to help you fall asleep and use Bose noise-masking technology to keep you asleep.
Nowadays, the hospitality sector is enduring huge adversity and is faced with a long challenging road ahead. This environment is placing new burdens and strains on leadership and bringing the need for personal resilience and inner immunity into sharp focus. Sleep is one of the pillars of resilience we decided to look into. It is defined as a dynamic activity and in order to fully understand the brain, we need to first understand sleep and its effect on the body and mind. Also, Sleep is the hospitality sector's main product offering and the industry would benefit greatly from understanding it.
About Yadid Ayzenberg:
Yadid Ayzenberg, Global head of Sleep devices and Director at BOSE Corporation an industry-leading audio equipment technology company, determined to bring about quality, performance, and design in its innovative products. He leads the firms’ Sleep products business and is focused on bringing product innovation to hundreds of millions who struggle from sleep issues.

Jonathan Humphries , Chris Mumford and Jon Hazan are joined by Claudia Roth, Quantum Energy Coach and Founder ofSoul Luxury as they explore the topic of self-awareness, mindfulness and meditation; How important it is to allow ourselves to self-reflect and develop good habits in order to live our lives with intent and purpose. Meditation being a tool to to view our thoughts more clearly, not forget about them, is essential. And meditation is personal, everyone has their own way.
Throughout this third episode of the Hospitality Resilience Series, Claudia touches upon many topics with a key message of self-awareness. After an introduction to Claudia’s career by Chris, she immediately delves into her transition from high flying hospitality executive to Quantum Energy Coach. As a business executive, Claudia sought to reinforce the self-image she had created on what success meant. The turning point seemed to be waking up in the Ritz in Paris with her Blackberry imprint on her face. In her own words “life outside had moved, but Claudia hadn’t”. To go through a journey of personal transformation one needs to learn to live a more intentional life.
Chris, Jonathan, Jon, and Claudia discuss in length how meditation helps facilitate intentional living and how that helps with transformations. Meditation doesn’t only come in the form of silence and yoga mats, but Claudia outlines the way individuals find inner peace through the strong day to day habits such as exercise or a brief walk. Finally, she outlines that community can help individuals with this daunting task by sharing compassion and creates a safe space for their journey.About Claudia:
Claudia Roth is the founder of Soul Luxury specialising in the area of personal growth & transformation and healing hospitality. She draws on her extensive experience as a global executive in luxury hospitality combined with a lifelong interest in how our energy field influenced by our thoughts, beliefs and emotions impact our lives.

Tue, 12 Jan 2021 - 10 - "Community-building: the journey it takes us on and its importance" with Monika Kanokova
Jonathan Humphries is in conversation with Monika Kanokova, author, entrepreneur, community strategist and lifelong believer in the power of communities. This is the final episode of 2020, marking the end of the year HoCoSo labelled as the "Year of Community", back in January. This year, more than ever, the power, significance and importance of communities was revealed.
In this podcast episode, we will come to understand why hospitality concepts of the future must take into consideration community building: what it means, what it is and how we do it. Humphries states "ultimately, we don't have to ask for permission anymore" because, according to Kanokova, access to information and access to people has never been so in reach, as it is today. So you must grab the opportunity, believe in your purpose and your values and be determined. You can be creative in your own way if you break the self-critique obstacle and let that inner-creativity express itself, in order to build self-confidence. So use your time wisely because time is precious, and time spent building and maintaining connections has proven to be beneficial in the long run.
There are solutions to be found and it is through collaboration and positivity that that will be achieved. There lays the power and importance of community.

Jonathan Humphries, Chris Mumfordand Jon Hazan are joined by Rhaya Jordan, nutritional consultant, as they explore the topic of honing your gut instinct in achieving inner immunity and personal resilience.
Big advocate for not limiting yourself and enjoying food, both “good” and “bad”, Rhaya’s key message is to understand your gut and enjoy your nutritional journey! Throughout this second episode of the Hospitality Resilience Series, Rhaya touches upon many topics with a key message of individualism in diet and refraining from restraining.
After an introduction into wholistic leadership by Chris, Rhaya immediately delves into the impact nutrition has on our mental wellbeing and its relation back to our gut. Through real-life examples, Rhaya demonstrates the immediate effects we face on a daily basis through poor nutritional choices, yet if we understand our bodies, easy adjustments can be made, consequently improving productivity and mental health. Continuing on, the hosts seek to further understand our gut’s importance, responsible for 90% of serotonin production and “the open fire” or source of contentment as described by Rhaya. In order to achieve this positive state of being through diet, Rhaya poses easily implementable actions to ultimately, find what works best for each individual and get curious. Besides trying out different foods, meal times and even fasting schemes, Rhaya offers various tips to reduce comfort-eating, subsequently reducing over-eating. In the session, food addiction also popped up and the impact of trigger foods on this.
About Rhaya: Rhaya studied Naturopathy in her hometown Sydney Australia in the early 80s and has continued to work in natural health, specifically nutrition since. She has a special interest in sustainability, working with sustainable food movements particularly through her work as Nutrition Consultant to Daylesford Organics. She was part of the team that wrote the first BSc in Nutrition Therapy at the University of Westminster where she taught at both under and post grad levels for nearly a decade and then later at the Centre for Nutrition and Lifestyle Management. Like many others, she has moved her private practice online, she continues to consult for Daylesford and other clients and continues her fascination with food, and especially the interplay between food and psychology.

Fri, 18 Dec 2020 - 8 - "Mental Health, Wellness and Creativity" with Mariana Palmeiro
Jonathan Humphries is in discussion with Mariana Palmeiro, Wellness and Spa expert, co-founder and head of Wellness Consultant, co-founder and chief business development officer at Field LLC, on the topic of "Mental health, wellbeing, and creativity". Her life has been devoted to wellbeing and looking after one-self in the art of prevention. She is an educator, consultant, thought leader, innovator, and entrepreneur.
Our mental health is under extreme pressure lately. During these trying times, we need to focus on all aspects of building our inner immunity and our personal resilience.
The World Health Organization - WHO - defined, in 1948, Health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. 72 years on, has that been achieved? The physical health has been very developed since that statement but a lot of that has been focused on the disease . Now, we started talking about a more wholistic approach to mental and emotional health and how we need to prepare our lives to be as healthy as possible.
Technology, as well, can now assist us and the professionals and practitioners in this field to better care for ourselves and our wellbeing. Biohacking is being introduced more and more in the field to help enhance the way our body is expressing itself. The hospitality industry, being years ahead in the level of experiences that companies are putting together with their technology, can serve as the best setting for these new biohacking technologies to flourish and develop and be in contact with people. Mariana explains her role in activating her network connections and advocating for this innovation to take place and reach a wide audience and community.

TheHospitality Resilience Seriesaims to challenge existing mindsets, exchange personal insights, discuss practical solutions and provide a forum for shared experiences that will help build personal solutions.
“Building personal resilience and inner immunity” marks the launch of the Hospitality Resilience Series. Special guest, Sean Worker, Managing Director of T5 Strategies and author of The ADAPTERS, shared the results of his extensive research examining the importance of adaptability and leadership best practice in the hospitality industry.
This first session was hosted by Jonathan Humphries from HoCoSo, Chris Mumford from Cervus Leadership Consulting and Jon Hazan from Atlas Coaching.
Resilience is about having a conversation and learning from each other. Humans adapt to change and learn to change according to the conditions they find themselves in. Leaders, nowadays must learn to drop the labels and adjust their expectations. But "this will pass" and it is necessary to look to the future and reshape the way we do things. Remember however we are not alone. Connections are now more important than ever and we must rely on our community, draw on the positivity that surrounds us and ask for help when it is needed.

They start off by displaying how Chris found his passion for the hospitality industry. Then develop further into how his career path, his experiences have led him to strongly believe that wellness and health are a crucial part of one’s professional life, and why everyone should apply some of these aspects to their positions in hospitality, and leadership. Chris stresses on the importance of self-awareness, of knowing oneself without the prism of any judgement on it, because, successful leadership is not about being superhuman, but about recognizing and understanding personal vulnerability and the support of one’s community.
Here are some recent articles on successful and authentic leadership:
- VUCA, its meaning and implications for hospitality
- “Do the best you can” in these testing times
- The need for authentic leadership

In Part 1, we covered North America, his time in San Francisco during the earthquake of 1989 and the 1992 Los Angeles riots. We're now in Asia, in Indonesia during the financial crisis of 1997/1998.
During this time of crisis, rising from the coronavirus pandemic, we look to others for inspiration. Although we’ve never had this kind of situation, for many of our leaders, and many of us as industry professionals, the opportunity to have a conversation with Alphy Johnson about some of the crisis that he has faced in his career is invaluable. He describes himself as the humble Inn keeper which is really not a true reflection of the amount of responsibility and ability that he has shown.At the time when leadership was all around command and control, charisma and being on stage, and selling a message, his management and leadership style now seems extremely relevant and was not in tune with the typical leadership styles of the time. Yet he was [is] highly regarded, highly respected by his colleagues, his friends and his community.
