#109: Invest in Your Restaurant Team So They Invest in You
October 16, 2024 by David Scott Peters
Building a strong restaurant team isn’t about luck — it’s about being intentional, setting the right tone and leading by example.
Hire the right people, train them well, hold them accountable, and recognize their efforts.
When you invest in your team, they’ll invest in you and that’s when your restaurant will truly prosper. In this episode of “The Restaurant Prosperity Formula,” restaurant coach David Scott Peters explores a topic that many restaurant owners overlook but is essential for success: team building. This episode is all about creating a team that is engaged, productive and aligned with your restaurant's vision.
Why a strong team is non-negotiable
Your team is your restaurant. They’re the ones interacting with guests, preparing the food, and creating the experience that keeps people coming back. Without the right team, you’ll find yourself micromanaging everything or constantly dealing with crises—and that’s not sustainable. If you want a restaurant that runs smoothly, whether you’re there or not, team building isn’t optional—it’s essential.
