It's a bumper week for !

We're excited to kick off our 2026 workshops in the HOSPO Health Leaders Program, and we've had some amazing sessions, great conversations and inspiring ideas.

Dr Larissa Bartlett has been out and about delivering Mindfulness for Leaders workshops, and sharing knowledge, tools and practices to bring mindfulness into the workplace in a way that can lift individuals wellbeing as well as business outputs.

Another highlight was our Wednesday Wellbeing Framework and Culture sessions with Chief Happiness Officer Sherri Ring and Kalis Hospitality’s senior leadership team. Seeing the group come together from across the state and genuinely connect was inspiring, you could really feel the commitment they have to one another and to their teams!

One leader shared:

“I was a bit sceptical that this program was going to be all kumbaya, but I was pleasantly surprised. I got a lot out of it and can really see the value now.”

You can’t pour from an empty cup - but in hospo, we’ve been trying to for too long!

Every January, we talk about staff wellbeing, culture, retention. But we skip the critical first step: leadership wellbeing.

Here’s what I’m seeing in Tasmanian hospitality right now:
∙Leaders working 60-80 hour weeks as standard
∙Decision-making while exhausted (which costs money & people)
∙Zero buffer when the inevitable crisis hits
∙“I’ll rest when it’s quieter” (spoiler: it never is)

The data is clear: burnt-out leaders create burnt-out teams. You can’t manage psychosocial risks for your staff when you’re drowning yourself.

This year, we’re doing something different. Not wellness programs. Not generic self-care advice.
We’re building pressure-proof leadership - practical systems that help hospo leaders manage their own wellbeing in the chaos, not after it.

Because sustainable hospitality starts with sustainable leadership.

What’s one thing you’re doing differently this year to protect your own capacity?

Happy New Year from the HOSPO Health crew! ✨

New Year’s Day looks a little different when you work in hospitality. After a big festive season filled with long shifts, late nights and plenty of memorable moments, many of you are back on deck today - helping others eat, drink, stay, celebrate and enjoy Tassie at its best.

So this is a huge shout-out to everyone across hospitality and tourism: front of house, back of house, accommodation, events and all the behind-the-scenes legends. What you do matters. You help make Tasmania welcoming, memorable and incredibly special for locals and visitors alike.

Here's a quick reminder from us: look after you, too. You can’t pour from an empty cup (or bottle… or jug 😉). Check in on your teammates, grab a breather when you can, and soak up some downtime with family or friends when it comes.

Here’s to the people who make hospitality such a great industry to be part of - let’s raise a glass to you. Happy 2026, let’s make it a good one together 🌟

Busy season check-in ❤️

As Christmas and New Year roll around, venues get busier and the pace ramps right up. While you’re looking after patrons, guests and your team, it’s easy to forget about yourself. Here are a few gentle reminders for the weeks ahead:

• Rest when you can, even a little helps
• Eat and hydrate regularly
• Move gently, a stretch or a few deep breaths count
• Check in with someone you trust
• Be kind to yourself, perfection isn’t the goal

If things feel heavy, support is always available through your workplace or Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Thanks for everything you do to make our Tasmanian hospitality industry so incredible! And remember, caring for others starts with caring for yourself.

What a cracking way to spend a Tuesday morning!

We caught up with the leadership team from Hadley's Orient Hotel and The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel, working through the HOSPO Health Wellbeing Framework together. There were some honest (and powerful) conversations as we explored the five pillars of wellbeing, took a moment to reflect, and then rolled up our sleeves with the new Card Deck which gave us the opportunity turn ideas and scenarios into practical actions that can actually make a difference at work.

Thanks for the energy, openness and great chats, team. We can’t wait to catch up again in February for some well-deserved mindfulness time!

It’s been a big, action-packed few weeks for our Leaders Program, with Culture Deck Workshops and Wellbeing Framework rolling out across the state.

Last week we had an afternoon with the awesome leadership team at the Hotel Grand Chancellor Launceston talking all things culture. We loved seeing everyone break into small groups, share ideas, and then bring it all together as one team.
It’s so good to see leaders making the time to build a supportive, positive culture. That’s what real leadership looks like - well done team!

Huge thanks to Glenn Robertson, Charles Siy and the whole crew for the great energy and thoughtful contributions. We'll see you at the next workshop!

It's a great spot to spend a morning and the team’s energy, enthusiasm and genuine connection really add to it!

A huge thank you to Rod, Maria and the entire leadership crew for such a warm, engaging workshop. Your commitment to building a supportive and connected workplace really shines through. We look forward to seeing you all for the next session of our HOSPO Health Leaders Program! 🌟

Leadership in action at - what an amazing team!🌟

After our Culture Deck Workshop at The Sebel last week we caught up with property Director Susan Richman for a chat. Her reflections really highlight what leadership looks like in action.

You can really feel the care this team has for their people. Their focus on staying connected and genuinely supportive creates the kind of workplace where everyone can thrive, and that's when the whole business thrives too.

A big shout out to Susan for her commitment to her people, and for taking part in the Leaders Program with her leadership team.

And thank you to General Manager Jayne Spicer and the whole crew for such a fantastic workshop. We can’t wait to keep working with you all — see you at the next session! 🙌
