Anthony Melchiorri started his hospitality career working at an Embassy Suites in Kansas and then worked his way up to becoming one of the most successful hotel general managers in New York City.
Throughout that journey, he discovered some practical things that allowed him to show up for himself and for the hotels and people he served. Then in 2012, he landed a deal with the Travel Channel that led to him hosting nine seasons of the hit show, Hotel Impossible, where he gave millions of people a front-row seat to what it takes to turn around struggling hospitality businesses.
Anthony drew from those experiences to write his recent best-selling book, Show Up: The Five Steps to Getting Out of Your Own Way, which I found to be so compelling that I flew from California to New York to sit down with him to discuss what he's learned about leadership and success in hospitality and beyond.
