welcome team

Hospitality greeting group

A welcome team is a group assigned to greet and orient newcomers—whether at a church, workplace, conference, or community organization.

Members typically handle introductions, answer questions, and help people feel comfortable in unfamiliar settings: The welcome team handed out name tags and pointed guests toward the coffee.

The term reflects the modern tendency to formalize hospitality roles that once happened informally.
