Soft skills and emotional intelligence in private service with Institute of Modern Butlers Chairman Steven Ferry

When emotions are running high, how do you turn things around, solve the problem, and provide the best possible service?

Steven became a butler in 1989, and since then, his career has evolved into hospitality and butler training. He’s written three books, including the British Butlers’ Bible, and teaches butlers and hospitality teams about proper standards – including the right attitude and approach, which is the heart of our conversation today.
