Today’s guest is Terry Smith, the lead pastor of The Life Christian Church (TLCC), a nondenominational faith community known for its diversity and robust leadership culture. Terry is the co-founder of the New York CIty Leadership Center, a speaker, and an author. He is a firm advocate for incorporating hospitality into leadership. The theme of this week’s episode is hospitality. When we say hospitality, we don’t mean how to set a table; it’s about creating a genuinely welcoming climate in an organization. When you create an environment that is truly welcoming to a diverse group of people, you have amazing potential to combat the difficulties of the world today.  You’ll hear Terry and Kevin Monroe talk about: How hospitality combats polarization. The five welcomes of hospitable leadership. Hospitality and belonging. How hospitality intersects with diversification and inclusivity. What it takes to be hospitable. Kat Haste, the resident artist for the Gratitude Challenge, shares what excites her most about creating art that inspires gratitude.  Kevin and Kat are proud to announce the unveiling of a new facet of the Gratitude Challenge: the Gratitude Challenge Card Deck! This deck consists of 54 prompts in a lovely gift box sized for your convenience to use anywhere at any time you wish.  Resources Terry Smith on Twitter | Facebook | Instagram TerryASmith.com The Hospitable Leader: Create Environments Where People and Dreams Can Flourish Pre-order the Gratitude Challenge Card Deck
