According
to Deloitte’s 2019 Restaurants & Food Service Industry Analysis, “winning
restaurants will be the ones who…can harness the power of their employees
to serve as brand ambassadors at the moments that matter.” Furthermore,
according to their 2019 Travel and Hospitality Outlook, they also state
that “with all the focus on emerging technology, it’s often easy to forget
that people…can be a brand’s most powerful competitive asset.” The focus
for the industry will continue to be on creating positive customer experiences.
“We’re
always watching trends and demands of the expansive restaurant industry,”
said Steve Gibson, Founder & CEO, of TalentServed. “And, we have the
resources and connections to place the best talent to help our clients
deliver exemplary customer service to build loyalty among guests over time.”
Based
in Atlanta, Patsy Van Brunt brings deep experience in human resources,
talent acquisition and service delivery training, working more than 20
years in the hospitality industry in Napa Valley, NYC, Houston, South Florida
and elsewhere. Patsy spent more than 15 years working with the industry-leading,
Hillstone Restaurant Group, where she helped pioneer the company’s signature
service structure focused on building guest engagement across hospitality
functions. As a key member of the TalentServed team, she will be responsible
for delivering appropriate candidates for the firm’s hospitality industry
clientele across the country.
“I
fell in love with the hospitality industry years ago when I saw the part
it plays in people’s memories and experiences,” said Patsy. “To get to
be a part of helping hundreds of restaurants create that positive impact
and influence with their staff and customers is beyond the best career
I could have imagined,” Patsy continued. “I’m thrilled to join the TalentServed
team to offer my expertise and attention to the broader hospitality industry.”
