The Iconic Podcast Lead Your Company and Team with Hospitality with Maria DeLorenzis Reyes
Leadership is not defined by titles, metrics, or performance reviews. It is defined by how people feel in your presence. In this inspiring episode, Jen welcomes leadership expert and speaker Maria DeLorenzis Reyes for a conversation that reframes what it means to lead a company, a team, and a culture.
Maria reveals how the principles of hospitality can transform workplaces, deepen trust, and create environments where people feel seen, valued, and supported. Through stories, perspective-shifting insights, and practical guidance, she invites leaders to return to the heart of leadership: humanity, generosity, and emotional intelligence.
This episode will challenge the way you think about culture, connection, and the responsibility that comes with influence.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• Why hospitality is a core leadership skill and how it changes your company culture
• The role of values in shaping who you hire, how you lead, and what you attract
• How to build environments where accountability and honesty are practiced, not just promised
• Why emotional intelligence and self-awareness will always outperform strategy alone
• A powerful leadership exercise that reveals what you truly model in your business
