#81: Use the Power of Trust to Build a Thriving Restaurant Business

September 20, 2023 by David Scott Peters

In the restaurant industry it’s important to focus on numbers and performance because those numbers tell you the health of your business. As a coach, I teach restaurant owners how to use budgets and set goals and then measure them. When hiring managers, it’s important to find those who are high performers so they can help you meet those goals.

But being a good manager and finding good managers isn’t all about performance. It’s also about establishing trust. Trust plays a critical role in your manager's success.

In this episode of my restaurant podcast, The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, I am going to explain this concept of performance and trust, based on renowned author, motivational speaker and organizational consultant Simon Sinek’s TED Talk. Sinek has one of the most watched TED Talks on YouTube and wrote the book, “Leaders Eat Last.”

He has inspired leaders and organizations around the world to focus on purpose leadership and create positive organizational culture.

I talk you through the theory, how Sinek got there while working with Navy Seals, and how this applies to your restaurant. Remember, trust is more than performance. It's about creating an environment where everyone can thrive. Inspired by Simon Sinek and guided by the Restaurant Prosperity Formula, let's make trust the cornerstone of your success.
