In his talk, Alex Berson of Sprudge.com, will talk about social roles as a major part of the service experience. There are different patterns depending on whether you work with food, coffee or alcohol. For example, a barista being physically constrained behind an espresso machine. How can we as an industry improve how we interact with our guests? Alex takes us back to the first coffee-shops in the early 17th century and shows us the development of cafés up to now.
