Thanks for the request. By the way, My father was President of the NAPC many Years back, and I grew up in your industry (but decided to stay in restaurants). I am sure we share a lot of the same insights on interviewing, and the industry in general. Look forward to more dialog.
There are a lot of resources here if you apply them…..some of the groups I like are Leading Generation Y, Restaurant Marketing, Ask The Experts……
I joined FohBoh to network with culinary professionals (like you) that are looking for more……from their team, themselves and their career. I thought you would be interested in the result and value based services that my company chefTrac™ offers.
My 27 years experience I have within the culinary industry lead me to create a set of tools for the modern culinary professional. They are designed to increase their success and your operations bottom line. Our programs provide results that are 100% guaranteed. Here are just a few of the benefits of incorporating our programs into your corporate culture.

“A unanimous commitment to self improvement, through the understanding of our natural strengths through statistically based programs that improve relations within and those we interact with.” – ChefTrac Mission Statement
chefTrac™ has centered it’s programs that support this mission. We create an immediate bond with those very unique individuals called chefs. They have their own language and sub-culture that can be difficult to communicate with. That is were I have the advantage, I am a chef working with chefs. I understand the real world frustrations and challenge that chefs and their teams face.
I have created a mini presentation that is just a brief overview of the programs offered.
If you have questions or would like to receive a package that contains more information on the programs mentioned in the presentation, just let me know.
