The BIG Mistake Restaurant Owners Make When Giving Employee Feedback (Do You Do This?)

  • Summary

  • Many restaurant owners avoid dealing with employee issues because they’re afraid of the discomfort or damaging relationships.

    But there's a proven way to make feedback quick, clear, and effective - so your restaurant team operates as a highly effective team.

    Whether you’re a single-location or multi-unit restaurant owner, you’ll discover a simple framework for delivering feedback that drives real behaviour change.

    You’ll also learn why the common "sandwich" approach that many restaurant owners use often backfires.

    Instead, you’ll see the exact 3-step framework for delivering criticism without creating defensive responses.

    Key moments:

    00:08:35 Getting employees to solve their own issues
    00:11:35 Making expectations crystal clear

    Whether you're dealing with tardiness, performance issues, or standards not being met - you'll learn exactly what to say, how to handle excuses, and when to escalate issues properly.

    Which means you can grow your restaurant without the stress of employee issues keeping you up at night.
