Today’s episode features a conversation between myself and Jeffrey Wise, CEO at Whitewater.




Jeffrey grew up on the thrill of the outdoors, getting involved in biking, paddling and backpacking at a young age. Whitewater provided not only an opportunity to share his love of the outdoors with his guests but also to encourage the appreciation and protection of nature.




Doing a job that he loves has taught Jeffrey some important lessons in regard to his work-life balance:




- Work and life should not compete but harmonize with each other.




- Work is a part of life and the two act together to create purpose.




- An organization thrives because of its cohesion as a team, not because of any one individual.




- Purpose can be found in daily work and in producing something meaningful.




These principles can help fellow hospitality leaders integrate their work into a balanced, healthy approach to their professional and personal lives.
