Episode 141: Starting with How

The guys get into discussing Weird Al, Alanis, and a certain DJ. What they're really after is your why! Why do we tell everyone how to do something and skip the why? What would it look like if we start with why instead of how? How could it change your store / team / role? See what we did there? I know it's cheesy but it is a food cost discussion or is it….

Episode #140: Desire and Execution

The guys discuss day one training, debating, and how training is never final. What they are trying to get at is, how do you keep the new team member once they start? How does communication effect it? How can one location have terrible turnover and another in the same company have low turnover? Hmm…could it be the leader? Could it be expectations? WARNING: Math ahead!
