Bringing together leaders from across the hospitality world, we dived deep into how to empower our teams, innovate with purpose, and navigate the unique challenges our industry faces. Industry gatherings like these remind us of the strength in collaboration. As Danielle Richardson from Laundy Hotel Group shared, 'We're all in it, we're all in the same business.'

Have you heard about CXO/50?   Those that know me, know that I’ve always had a passion for building long-term relationships and getting to know people on a personal level.  It's something that has helped me become the leader I am today. However, sometimes in business, especially at the C-level, this can be a challenge. We are all running at 150mph and always have more on our plate than time in a day.  Plus, when you are at the top of your field, who can you turn to when you don't have the answer or need some advice or support? There hasn't been a clear answer to this problem.   I also believe strongly in community building. This has been a life-long passion of mine, so I wanted to create something unique for C-level executives.    So I rounded up some of the best and brightest c-suite technology executives - including Michael Keithley, Melanie Hildebrandt, Greg Moore, Theresa Miller, Clemens Koegler, Allen Fazio, Lance Ralls, Rosalia H., and Joel Manfredo, who each come from some of the largest brands in the world, and asked them to become the Founding Advisory Board, and help me shape this straw-man of an idea into something great and something that fills the void we have all been feeling. Together we are on the verge of creating something really special – something we are calling CXO/50 (www.CXO50.co)!   CXO/50 is a new kind of peer community centered on deep, authentic, and meaningful relationships to support the professional and personal journeys of our members. It's about fulfillment through connection.   What makes us unique? It comes down to 5 key differentiators:   1. CXO/50 is currently for C-suite Technology Executives (by Invitation Only) with a max of 50 members per region. 2. A Focus on Deep & Authentic Personal & Professional Relationships. 3. Guest Hosts to fuel conversations at our amazing Dinners & Events. 4. Vendor Sponsored with no hard selling. 5. Giving Back to the Communities in which we serve.   Our Guest Hosts are a special component of CXO/50.  Our inaugural CXO/50 Dinner will have Keith Ferrazzi as our special Guest Host. Keith is a NYT Bestselling Author (Who's Got Your Back, Leading Without Authority, and Never Eat Alone), a Keynote Speaker, Executive Team Coach, and Founder, Chairman, & CEO, Ferrazzi Greenlight. He's a good friend of our community, and we couldn’t be happier to have him at our inaugural dinner in late July.   We are also focusing on one region at a time, with the Southern California region being our starting point, but with a vision to build a similar community in other major regions across the US.  For now, we are starting small and staying laser focused.   If you are a C-level technology executive outside of the SoCal region and interested in expanding CXO/50 to other markets - please message me. We are always seeking interesting sponsors for our dinners and events. If interested, please message me.   #CXO50 #CIO #CTO #CDO #CAIO #AuthenticRelationships #ChangeMakers

I just got the invite to this McKinsey session on how to enhance productivity in government agencies. As a culturalist I can 100% assure you that government agencies don't focus on financial or operational productivity, since their jobs don't even remotely depend on that. Leadership in government agencies focus on POLITICAL productivity as well as headcount and regulatory growth, which leads to parallel growth in influence and power. That is their core motivation because that is how they are truly evaluated and valued. It's neither good nor bad, it's just organizational reality. https://lnkd.in/gF8xJXjq
