Distracted Teams Destroy Hospitality

Описание: The guest doesn’t need you to be perfect. They need you to be present.



In this episode of the *Church Staff Book Club*, we break down Chapter 4 of The Come Back Effect and explore why presence beats performance in church hospitality. From the parking lot to the pulpit, your guests can tell when you’re distracted, rushed, or multitasking... and it matters. Whether you’re a pastor, volunteer leader, or on the greeting team, this conversation will help you lead with empathy, margin, and emotional awareness.

🎙️ In this episode, we cover:



Why multitasking is the enemy of hospitality
How body language (even your _feet_) tells people if you’re really listening
The 4 biggest distractions that prevent us from being fully present:
→ Pressure, Pace, Performance, and People


What to say when you do need to exit a conversation gracefully
