Is Your Restaurant Manager Destroying Your Business? Get The Manager Hiring Toolkit Here→ https://hs.ownershifttraining.com/managerhiringtoolkit
Think hiring a restaurant manager will free up your time and boost profits?
Think again.
Many restaurant owners watch sales tank, staff turnover explode, and food costs spiral out of control - often within months - because they made one fatal management mistake.
In this episode of Restaurant Growth Accelerator, I share my personal story of opening a second location, hiring a manager, and watching my once-successful business collapse.
You’ll hear exactly how promoting the wrong person - without proper restaurant management training - led to burnout, lost staff, and more.
Tune in to discover:
✅The critical difference between worker skills vs. management skills most owners overlook
✅Why promoting your best worker can create your worst manager
✅How to hire restaurant managers who WILL do the job (not just those who CAN do it)
✅A proven 6 to 8-month restaurant manager training program that builds real leadership skills
✅The anonymous employee survey system that reveals hidden management problems before they explode
You’ll learn how to set management expectations, run performance evaluations, and build a restaurant management system that works in any multi-location or independent restaurant.
