Welcome to episode #865 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #865. No matter the business, providing exceptional hospitality is a key factor in success. If you don't believe just listen to what Will Guidara has to say. Will was the co-owner of Eleven Madison Park, a two-star brasserie that rose to become the best restaurant in the world. In this conversation, he shares his secret to success: radical reinvention, a true partnership between the kitchen and the dining room, and memorable, over-the-top, bespoke hospitality. Will and his team went above and beyond to provide guests with memorable experiences, from a magical sledding trip to Central Park for a family who had never seen snow, to filling a private dining room with sand, complete with mai-tais and beach chairs for a couple with a cancelled vacation. Will believes that hospitality should extend beyond those dining at the restaurant to his own team, teaching them to deliver praise and criticism with intention, and to give more, not less. He encourages us all to find the magic in what we do for ourselves, the people we work with, and the people we serve. By transforming ordinary transactions into extraordinary experiences, every business can choose to be a hospitality business, and maximize their potential for success, and that's the crux of his book (that isn't a cookbook) called, Unreasonable Hospitality.

Welcome to episode #863 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #863. It's hard to describe the work that Cory Doctorow does. One part author, one part journalist, one part activist, one part media theorist, one part thought leader... how many parts is that? How about we just settle on the term, "Polymath." Cory is as known for his thought-provoking science fiction novels and he is for doing his best to level the playing field for all consumers and businesses. He works and explores the intersection of technology, society, and politics. He was the co-editor of the popular blog Boing Boing, and has written numerous books, including the bestselling Little Brother and Homeland. He maintains a daily blog at Pluralistic.net. He works for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, is a MIT Media Lab Research Affiliate, is a Visiting Professor of Computer Science at Open University, a Visiting Professor of Practice at the University of North Carolina’s School of Library and Information Science and co-founded the UK Open Rights Group. He is also a frequent speaker at technology conferences and events, and is known for his engaging and thought-provoking presentations. His latest book, Chokepoint Capitalism (which he co-authored with Rebecca Giblin), argues that we’re in a new era of “chokepoint capitalism,” with exploitative businesses creating insurmountable barriers to competition that enable them to capture value that should rightfully go to others. Ultimately, his work will leave you questioning the role of technology in our lives and the future of our economy. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:01:54. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

Through his book, he encourages readers to use their craft, courage, intelligence and ingenuity to make meaningful impact. Mauro is committed to mentoring and storytelling, and he is passionate about connecting with others and helping them to realize their potential.
