How To Give Hospitality Workers A Reason To Get Up In The Morning

This uplifting episode sees recruitment guru for Everyman Cinemas, Mike Newman join us for this extremely informative podcast.

Many people don't think of Cinema as being part of Hospitality but Everyman Cinema turns this on it's head.

Mike shares some of the struggles but reveals how he & Everyman have faced those struggles head on & how they continue to build solutions proactively.

Mike reveals how employees and the community are key to the success of the business and that the work to improve their employee offer is ongoing.

A fascinating insight into a world where film & Hospitality combine.


We also find out more about the man behind the incredible Linkedin posts and what "C" word he doesn't want to use but very quickly does!


Unfortunately there were a number of technical issues meaning that Sarah had to lead most of the show and we hope that some of the audio issues affecting our guest does not hamper the show.
