We wanted to show there was another way to build and lead businesses. So Hospitality Mavericks was born. We wanted to gather together the worldβs Mavericks who do things differently from the norm. They are leaders from all walks of life who have shown and proven that there is a better way forward without cashing out on their values; ripping off their people, community and planet. That was over ten years ago. Since then we've worked with and interviewed more than 200 leaders, thinkers and experts on the best way to build a business that makes a positive impact on all stakeholders.

Life and Business is MESSY!

- Challenges and obstacles are constant.
- Itβs a universal law - but we still desperately try to control it all.
You must FALL IN LOVE with the brutal fact that life and business are messy.
How do you deal with the constant messiness?

LAUNCHING NEXT WEEK
Welcome to this special edition podcast series, "EXPANSION THROUGH CULTURE - The Scandi Way", brought to you by Ziik and powered by Hospitality Mavericks.
Facing the toughest challenges in history, some hospitality operators not only navigate the storms well - but emerge stronger by mastering the art of culture and people!
Meet the Scandinavian Maverick Leaders and organisations that master this art.
We take a peek inside their organisational playbooks!
We learn how they build cultures as they scale their businesses, lead teams, and thereby gain a competitive edge that lasts.
We are launching the series on Monday at 2 pm GMT with Christopher Cato Lavebrand, Head of Partnership at Ziik, discussing the why behind this series. On Tuesday, we meet the first Maverick Leader, Simon Walner, Co-Founder and CEO of Bastard Burgers, who is scaling their business by putting people first.
I'VE BEEN A PODCAST GUEST
It was great to sit down with Rob Liddiard to discuss topics such as βThe difference between B2B and B2C startupsβ, "Business as a Force for Good", "Agile Hospitality", how to build an excellent leadership Team, and "Why Great People Strategy Makes or Break a Business".

The Daila Lama brings up...
