November 1, 2021

We can use sight, taste, smell, hearing, and touch to shape people’s experiences.

 Anything we experience is shaped by all of our senses and perceptions. Leaders trying to create high-quality experiences for their team and customers have to pay attention to how things look, feel, taste, sound, and smell. These are details that make a big difference! In this episode of Magic in the Room, Luke, Chris, and guest John Stewart discuss how leaders can apply the concepts of Sensory Informed Design. 
About John Stewart, President, Encompass Develop, Design & Construct, LLC
John has a lot of titles – company owner, registered architect, licensed contractor, recognized authority in the gaming and hospitality industry. But the title he prefers is “partner.” That’s how he built a $100+ million company that is the choice of major companies such as Yum! Brands, Ford Motor Company, Churchill Downs, Pinnacle, and Brown-Forman. John’s nearly three decades of work experience runs the gamut from gaming and hospitality to religion and retail.
He has built churches, casinos and corporate headquarters, but his greatest skill is building teams of dedicated, talented professionals. He’s a servant leader who devotes time to his family, community, and church, volunteering as a teacher for 3rd and 4th graders, a marriage mentor and an educator on Business and Work as a tool for missions.
