Kids have a lot to teach us about being carefree and joyful. At work, we often focus too much on the serious aspects and forget to let our hair down and have some fun. Let's take a cue from the little ones and remember that having fun is an essential element of a productive work environment. So we did just that.. everyone in office got their rockstars along and we did a #SeeSawCarnival in The Office. #WorkLifeBalance #ChildlikeJoy #Productivity

Do you have the where? Is it going to be just you 2, or are you going to propose on Xmas day in front of all the friends or family that you share that day with? If you’re doing it when you're on your own, have you thought about where? I’ve got some ideas that might help you. Your first date Where was your first date? Is that a suitable place to propose? Going back to where it started is a lovely thought if it fits with a proposal that is. Going back to a nightclub that’s full of people and loud wouldn’t really fit, would it. Breakaways. Is there a place you like to go for a short break that means something to you both? Maybe it was your first breakaway together? Would that fit? Dinner for 2 Do you have a favourite restaurant that you like to visit. It would be in front of other people mind, so if you don’t want anyone to see you propose, then that would be out. Home Home would be a good choice to; you’ve got time to prep the situation, and you can be snuggled up watching a romantic movie when that fantastic opportunity arose. Where have you decided it's going to be? #proposing #gettingengaged #planningtheproposal

🥃 Happy International Whisky Day, everyone! Bet you didn’t expect to read about whisky on LinkedIn, did you? But hang on, there's a twist. It’s not just about raising a glass; it’s a nod to the passions and hobbies that colour our lives outside the "office". I've been a casual whisky fan for years, but only recently dove deep into the world of Scotch and Irish whiskey. It's been a fascinating journey beyond just savouring flavours, and here’s why it matters for us as professionals. Hobbies like whisky tasting teach us to appreciate the nuances, the craftsmanship behind a product, and the cultural stories in each bottle. Not to mention the connections we create with people through through shared passions. And that reflects a lot on how we approach all our challenges and goals in business. So, here’s a toast to hobbies that enrich our lives and subtly blend into our work ethic. How do your hobbies influence your professional perspective? P.S. Did you know? 'Whiskey' with an 'e' is for the Irish and Americans. 'Whisky', without the 'e', is for the rest of the whisky-loving world. Let’s chat about your favourite dram or how your passions crossover into your work! 🌍 #InternationalWhiskyDay #WorkLifeBalance #HobbiesAndWork #LinkedInCommunity

During these holidays I’ve been in bed with a flu but Immersed in the magic of the series "The Bear”. I am fascinated by how this extraordinary production transforms a simple restaurant into a haven of healing for wounded souls. Since I have been working in hospitality education, I have always been convinced of the healing value of working in hospitality because I have seen the effects in many people.  Here we talk about individuals, each carrying their own universe of tragedies and sufferings, yet the restaurant becomes a sacred place that becomes the remedy for soul wounds. Hospitality, in the end, becomes a form of expression for repressed, violent, and problematic individuals, leading them to change not only in soul but also in the approach to life and other people.  The restaurant becomes the convergence point of interconnected destinies, in some cases, the family they have chosen, not the one they were born into.  Caring for others as a mission can lead to rebirth to healing, I believe in this, or better yet, I know it! Because in a restaurant, as in life, "Every Second Counts," the seconds that have passed, but above all, those yet to come. #hospitality, #finedining, #culinary, #hospitalitycareer
