About Course
Running a restaurant or bar is hard enough without constantly worrying about hiring and keeping good staff. It can feel like no one wants to work anymore—or that no one wants to stay. But what if the problem isn’t just “them”? What if there are things you can do right now to make your team stronger, happier, and more reliable?
This course is all about simple, practical ways to fix common staffing problems. We’ll focus on creating a positive work environment where people want to stay—and give their best. You’ll learn how to treat employees like valuable team members (not just bodies filling shifts) while staying in control of your business.
We’ll also touch on ways to bring fresh ideas, like fairness and respect, into your leadership style without overcomplicating things. By the end, you’ll have tools to lower your stress, build trust with your team, and run your business more smoothly.
This isn’t about buzzwords or fluff—it’s about running a better business.
NOTE: This course is still being developed, but the syllabus has been published to let you know what each lesson will cover.
