Session Description:
In the past few years, hiring has skyrocketed to the #1 challenge for restaurant owners. The unemployment rate is the lowest it's been in 15 years, and the next generation of employees views the workplace differently than their parents did. Success in hiring takes a different approach today than it did 5 or 10 years ago. Some restaurants have no problem attracting talent, while others are chronically understaffed. There are a few strategies that make the difference.
You’ll learn:
• Simple strategies to find, hire, train and retain top talent
• 10 hiring and retention ideas you can implement now
• Strategies for motivating and engaging your best staff
