How to develop your leadership skills as the manager of long-term team performance
Becoming a GM is a big step up. As a shift leader you lead by being there. As a GM you lead by building teams. Making this move involves a shift of mind. You can’t ‘make’ people be team players, but you can create conditions in which people want to be team players. Good to Great is built around the core idea of how to create a team climate in the fast paced world of bars and restaurants.
In London, Good to Great is a five-day programme run on the same day each week for five consecutive weeks.
In Manchester, Bristol and Glasgow, we offer this as a 5 day programme, or separate workshops.
The programme is designed for single site line managers including GM, Head Chef and anyone in hospitality who has responsibility for long term team performance.
