Polishing the Stagecoach: Don't Let Trainers Fall Behind YourTrainees

Copyright 2011 by Jim Sullivan

I recently had lunch with Tim Kirkland, the best-selling author of The Renegade Server (2009, Indian Creek Press, $19.95). If you haven’t read the book—a 21st Century treatise on how to motivate, inspire and direct iPod Generation waitstaff to better serve and sell—I highly recommend it.

Our conversation centered not on servers, but on the current state of—and frustrating lack of progress in—foodservice training. We…

Jim,
I have purchased copies of your book on multi-unit leadership for the people in my department. I am a fan! Thanks for putting together in one book what it took many of us years to learn.

Hi Jim, Welcome to FohBoh. Please take a look at the blogs on my page - "The Power of Teddy Bears" and "The impact of the current economy on training" (which I sent to you previously. Also, please join the "CHART Training" group.

Will you be at the DC Conference?

All the best,

Jim, welcome to the site. I have always been a huge fan of your stuff and have used it over and over again in teaching and coaching my team. We just completed a total review of your MUM book complete with each MUM taking a chapter and presenting to our group what they learned from their section. Now we dig into the details.

It is awesome to finally see some training for these unsung heroes of the industry!

Thanks again!
Andy
