Developing Your Marketing Mindset: Real-World Lessons from Hospitality
By Leora Halpern Lanz
Everyone needs a marketing mindset—not just marketers.
In Developing Your Marketing Mindset, award-winning hospitality strategist and Boston University professor Leora Halpern Lanz reframes marketing as the art of creating meaningful human connections, not just pushing products. This practical, inspiring guide shows leaders, entrepreneurs, employees, and students how to think strategically and act with purpose—whether “marketing” appears in your job title or not.
Drawing on decades of industry experience and compelling mini case studies, Leora reveals how hospitality principles—anticipating needs, personalizing experiences, building community—can transform brands, energize teams, and cultivate lasting loyalty. You’ll discover how to communicate with genuine empathy, weave wellness and sustainability into your work, and turn business objectives into authentic human connections.
Readers also gain access to a bonus chapter, Marketing with Meaning (available at leoralanz.com beginning September 15, 2025), exploring how conscious marketing drives both profit and trust across any industry.
This is marketing with intention. Marketing with hospitality at its heart.
Ideal for communicators, hospitality professionals, service-driven leaders, and anyone who believes marketing is more than metrics, this New England Book Festival WINNER (Business Book 2025) deserves a place alongside Setting the Table and Unreasonable Hospitality.
Develop your marketing mindset. Transform how you connect.
