Lastly, hospitality requires a great deal of resiliency, often in the form of physical, mental, and emotional labor. Within such a small team, it is necessary for everyone to support each other in this labor. This is amplified when in a leadership role, as your emotional state has a direct and significant impact on the team. The ability to communicate empathetically while emotionally self-regulating is critical to success in this role, as is the ability to reach out to others on the management team and ask for help and support when doing so is impossible.
