Old school fundamentals took center stage on Rising Tides Live as Shawn Walchef and the community explored a simple question: what timeless tactics still work in a new school world? From eye contact, handwritten notes, and personal phone calls to showing up in person and learning people’s names, operators and entrepreneurs shared reminders that technology may change the tools but not the principles. A clear theme emerged: real connection still drives trust and opportunity. When leaders listen, stay present, and follow through on their word, the fundamentals of hospitality and business continue to build lasting relationships.
