This program will teach Unit Managers (and Multi-Unit Managers) the why, what and how of revenue-generating shift leadership in an increasingly competitive marketplace. The program content is based on detailed new research with over 480 high-performing General Managers who shared their best practices relative to planning and executing the revenue-driven, service-energizing and team-building shift. The program will combine lecture, video, discussion and shift “case studies” to measurably improve performance of both your new and “veteran” managers. This presentation is guaranteed—in writing--to increase sales, reduce costs, and measurably improve service.

In this idea-packed session, best-selling author Tim Kirkland will share dozens of impactful suggestions on how to drive brand affinity and Guest frequency.
