#77: Owning a Restaurant Doesn’t Necessarily Make You a Great Leader

July 26, 2023 by David Scott Peters

In this episode of The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, I am going to focus on the importance of being a good leader and how your leadership will get you to prosperity. Listen in to learn why leadership is so important and what you can do when you’re not a natural leader. You will also learn how to identify what kind of leader you are and what behaviors you need to avoid. If you want to achieve prosperity, you must take on the responsibility of learning to lead and become the leader your restaurant needs.

Leadership is a core part of the Restaurant Prosperity Formula, which is something I created based on what the most successful restaurant owners I’ve worked with do on a daily basis to achieve their success.

The basic premise of the formula centers around achieving prosperity, freedom from your restaurant and the financial freedom you deserve. To achieve prosperity you have to follow a very specific formula made up of leadership, systems, training, accountability and taking action! All those lessons you learn along the way don’t matter if no one leads the team. Leadership is the glue that makes all of this work.

Tune into this episode to learn the leadership killers, such as a lack of confidence, what makes a great leader, how to figure out what kind of leader you are in your restaurant and how to grow your leadership skills so you’re becoming the leader your restaurant business needs.

The goal of this podcast episode is to help you look at yourself with a critical eye. Then, after you assess where you fall, make the decision to improve. Your team and business are counting on you, and that’s what great leaders do.
