What if every candidate and new hire felt like a VIP guest? What if onboarding wasn't just efficient—but unforgettable?

What if every candidate and new hire felt like a VIP guest? What if onboarding wasn't just efficient—but unforgettable?
Inspired by the book "Unreasonable Hospitality," by Will Guidara, we invite you to re-examine the journey from interview to first week on the job through the lens of radical hospitality.
Over the course of our 90 minutes together, we’ll explore:
- Why hospitality matters at work — and how it goes beyond perks and swag
- Moments that matter in a new hire's journey (from first email to first Friday)

- A fresh lens on the candidate and onboarding experience
- Creative ideas for welcoming new team members with intention
- A deeper understanding of what makes people feel seen, valued, and at home
- Inspiration to set yourself apart through the practice of unreasonable hospitality
- You’re a team lead, HR pro, or people person who cares about culture
- You want new hires to feel something beyond a Slack invite and a calendar full of meetings
- You’re ready to turn “good enough” into “we can’t believe they did that!”

Your Facilitators This Month:
Hi, I'm Theresa Destrebecq!
I am a passionate learner and leader who loves books, so I started a company that brings book-learning to companies to make it more social and transformational. |
Hi, I'm Laura Dietze!
I fell in love with the moment of understanding a customer problem and solving it with tech 20 years ago, and have never turned back. Today, I care more about building organizations that can do that instead of the product - which is awfully similar to hospitality. |
