Any questions? It's how we end every meeting.
How often does your team actually have questions?
How often do they actually make the changes you asked for?

How we present information may be to blame for a lack of engagement.
Our teams work and communicate with an operational language.
When we ask questions or give information in accounting terms, we are asking them to engage in a new language.

Try explaining or asking questions in a more operational tone-
Instead of "why is labor over 35%?"
Rephrase to "were expected sales less than expected, why did we not adjust labor accordingly".
The 2nd question asks in away that mirrors how they operate.
Until your team is taught about accounting terms and how they connect to operations, try communicating expectations from the perspective they use daily.

Navigator Consulting has programs to help bridge the communication path between the numbers and operations of your business.

The labor market can be difficult.
Is your team understaffed?
There is an ideal number of customers per server that equals efficient time management but leaves time for good customer interactions.

Do you know that number for your restaurant?

Where do you find your best staff memebers?
How do you keep them engaged?

If you are struggling with labor (and really, who isn't ?!)
Let's have a conversation- there are many different answers based on your needs and location.
Conversation is always free!

There is something special about an experience that exceeds expectations.
We expect good food and polite service, but when that food surprises us with new flavors, brings us the comfort we needed or the service made you feel welcomed and special, you remember it.

In hospitality it is easy to take for granted the fact that we create experiences for our guests every day - and not just in fine dining. All service styles involve interacting and making an impression with our guests.

We love the magic that is possible in restaurant operations, check out our website today and let's see what we can help you create!

Accidents happen, misunderstandings happen, bad days happen.
Even the best of teams will have moments where is all goes wrong.

Do you have a guest recovery plan?
Even the worst mistakes can be handled in a way that leaves the guest feeling like they were heard and considered.

The plan doesn't have to be complicated or involve giving everything away for free. It can be as simple as knowing when to get a manager to step in, or how to apologize without excuses or blaming others.
Being proactive is key to turning a bad guest experience into a positive interaction.

What are your new staff expectations like?
What does your training program look like?
-Is it clear on expectations and the process to get there?
-Is information readily available for for your staff or do they get told once and expected to remember?

The job may not be complicated, but new staff don't know how YOU want it done.

A little time and a clear, organized training schedule goes a long way to helping your new staff up and running and feeling good about the job.

A good program doesn't have to be complicated but it is hard to have the time to build a good onboarding program.
Navigator Consulting specializes in customized onboarding programs.
Getting your staff engaged and knowledgable faster pays off in sales and in reduced frustration for you!!
