Homegrown hospitality comes from the businesses and people who know their neighbors and their community. As tourism revs up in Hanover, we’re excited to offer these complimentary workshops to help your business lead with heart, serve with flair and create with joy.
THE BOARD ROOM: Crafting the Intentional Experience
In this fun and interactive workshop, you’ll build a charcuterie board for someone else at the table. However, every choice has to be made with that person in mind. What do they like? What haven’t they tried? What would make them feel like you thought about them before they arrived?
The debrief after the activity reveals everything about intentional hospitality:
This workshop is led by Ryan Allen with Little Birdie Consulting.
PLEASE NOTE: Workshop registration is limited to businesses located in Hanover County and the Town of Ashland that operate within the tourism and hospitality sector. Eligible businesses include restaurants, retail shops, lodging providers, attractions, and other visitor-serving businesses. Due to limited seating and focus on Hanover/Ashland hospitality businesses, at this time we cannot accept registrations from businesses not located within the two jurisdictions or that fall outside of the hospitality sector. If you are unsure your business falls within these parameters please reach out to the Economic Development office and we will be glad to assist.
