Why empathy is becoming increasingly important: FIBO Ambassador Dr. Anna-Maria Fässler
Bar ohne Namen
Entschlossen verweigert sich Savage, der Bar einen Namen zu geben. Stattdessen sind drei klassische Design-Symbole das Logo der Trinkstätte in Dalston: ein gelbes Quadrat, ein rotes Viereck, ein blauer Kreis. Am meisten wurmt den sympathischen Franzosen dabei, dass es kein Gelbes-Dreieck-Emoji gibt. Das erschwert auf komische Weise die Kommunikation. Der Instagram Account lautet: a_bar_with_shapes-for_a_name und anderenorts tauchen die Begriffe ‘Savage Bar’ oder eben ‚Bauhaus Bar‘ auf.
Für den BCB bringt Savage nun sein Barkonzept mit und mixt für uns mit Unterstützung von Russian Standard Vodka an der perfekten Bar dazu.
We introduce: Our FIBO Ambassador Dr. Anna-Maria Fässler. Hotel industry expert with valuable tips for successful hosts and those who want to become one.
FIBO: How do you keep yourself fit & healthy in everyday life?
Anna-Maria: I love to exercise. I do sports four to five times a week. Twice with a personal trainer, twice I'm in nature and once I'm in the water.

FIBO: What has been your biggest milestone so far?
Anna-Maria: My biggest milestone is that together with my husband, I am still successfully running our Sonnenalp in the fourth generation.
FIBO: What does wellness mean for you?
Anna-Maria: For me, wellness means having time. Having time for myself, me-time! And that I can simply do what I feel like doing. And if it's nothing, then that's good as well.
FIBO: What helps you to relax?
Anna-Maria: Nature! My Number 1 for sure.
FIBO: How do you think the hotel industry will develop? Which topics are in focus?
Anna-Maria: The more digitalised we and the world become, the more empathetic we have to be as hosts. That is the very big focus. We have to pick people up when they come to us. When they check in with us, we have to make them feel at home, relaxed and comfortable.

FIBO: You were at FIBO for the first time in 2023. How did you like it?
Anna-Maria: Yes, it was my first time at FIBO and I would not have imagined it like this. FIBO is very lively, with new momentum and has absolute potential to expand the health theme even further.
FIBO: Who would you like to meet in person and why?
Anna-Maria: Michelle Obama - because she is an impressive woman for me and a great role model. And Judith Williams - because she is so refreshing as an entrepreneur.
