What does it really take to lead well in hospitality and in life?

In this episode of YES Is the Answer, Christine Trippi sits down with hospitality veteran Jimmy Taylor, who shares 34 years of lessons learned across sales, operations, and leadership. From building genuine relationships to creating cultures people want to stay in, this conversation is a masterclass in empathy, execution, and showing up.

Jimmy reminds us that leadership isn’t about titles or tactics. It’s about caring, consistency, and doing the small things that matter most.

Why leaders who understand both sales and operations lead with more empathy and realism

How relationships, not résumés, create loyalty with teams, guests, and owners
