Random Acts of Kindness

With all the buzz and excitement of day-to-day life, it's nice to hear about the good stuff in the industry. Share the "small things" that bring a smile to your face and renew your faith in those around you.

Biography: Always looking to place great people with clients and friends.
Love the Industry.
Worked fast casual, casual dining, bar and upscale casual dining before morphing myself and my career with a national hot-concept. Worked expansion world-wide before assisting with buy-out conversion. Wanted a different take on hospitality so I splintered out on my own in 2002...current focus: team and executive coaching, small to medium sized concepts.

My experiences in hospitality have provided opportunities for me to Climb Mt. Fuji, dive the Great Barrier Reef, Hike Volcano National Park and splunk (is that even a word) in Budapest, and meet my husband...4 continents, 16 countries, 46 US states and one baby girl later, life is still an adventure and getting better every day!

My husband Christian and I live in Mpls, MN with our daughter Alysia, our son Cj and our two cats golden & taz!

Years in the Industry: 20 years

Add up their ages and it's 60, which is how I feel. Scary.

We just took a trip out east - very fun. Business is great as well. We should connect one of these days soon...I have a great lead on some reasonably priced leadership training you may want to have some of your people go through...Let's talk soon, Denise

At 8:50pm on June 2, 2008, Denise Franck Aboody said…: I am working on a book and a cool product to launch into the hospitality field! Very cool stuff! New baby at home keeps me busy about every minute I am not working, she is a blast. Other than that coaching clients and consulting projects are non stop. One cool thing is a recipe spec book that combines cost which is fun and seems to help my client. SO...Tell me about this Perfect Beer class - sounds cool!

At 8:40pm on June 2, 2008, Kristen Siqueiros said…: Well, I am so pleased that you asked that, because I love sharing :o)

I am getting ready to go help train the Perfect Beer at one of our stores this week. It will be my first store since I got certified as a corporate trainer and I am stoked!! Thank you for asking :o)

How about you? What do you have going on right now?
