The importance of the chef and being a " Team Player"
With cuisine having such a prominent role worldwide, the chefs carry massive importance in the food industry and beyond. Over the last several decades, their impact grew from being unknown cooks working behind the curtains to famous artists, educators, entrepreneurs, social activists, and so much more. Not only that their vision and guidance are making or breaking the restaurant business, but also they dictate eating and cooking trends throughout the globe.
A Chef is the star of the restaurant, so it can attract more guests, but if you are unsuccessful with choosing, your business might be ruined. The chef cook is the person, who organizes all the work in the restaurant kitchen, and he is also the link between the owner of the restaurant and the rest of the employees.
Chefs play a critical role in the kitchen. Their role extends beyond managing other cooks to also planning the menus, ensuring that presentation is on point and even developing new, creative recipes for those unique meals everyone craves.
To be a chef you have to be very meticulous in everything you do, from the simplest to the most complex task.
DID YOU KNOW?
Approximately 60% of restaurants fail within the first year of operation and 80% fail within the first five years. These numbers may seem off-putting, but the remaining 20% of restaurants go on to find long-term growth and success.
Teamwork
But did you know? You can have the best Chef in the world but if you don't have effective teamwork you will never get Top Notch Results.
Effective teams require people with different strengths to work together in new ways and at greater speeds to achieve the results that restaurants need.
Team players understand they’re expected to join others in making important decisions and contributing new ideas.
