There’s a lot of buzz around AI regarding local marketing in the industry.

Without appropriate guardrails from corporate or the parent organization, Generative AI can make recommendations that seem great for franchisees but can break brand guidelines, rules, or even laws.

Given this new ability to drastically increase productivity with AI, the average user lacks sufficient data on their own to mitigate risk sufficiently.

How much do you let the system take action on behalf of franchisees and remove the need for user intervention? To what level should you empower franchisees or enhance tools they interact with directly?

Join Nick Markman - Senior Product Manager at Evocalize, as he explores the spectrum of what to fully automate, what to automate with supervision, and what to allow users the freedom to automate with Generative AI.

Full Course Fund CEO, Lauren Hernandez joins Jim Taylor of Benchmark Sixty and Adam Lamb of Chef Life Coaching to discuss the growing disparity of effective hospitality training and the expectations placed on new staff members without the requisite skill sets, and how COVID only made things worse.

Show Notes:

Thoughts: the restaurant industry has an education problem. Most restaurant training is on the job, which presents several challenges:

1. Lack of budget

2. Even less time

3. Highly subjective: No QC/standardization

4. Doesn’t accommodate different learning styles

5. Education as a path to creating the next gen of restaurant leadership & promoting & developing from within

The Three Things That You Can Do Right Now To Close The Hospitality Training Gap:

1.) Invest in a culture of training and coaching.

2.) Provide Leadership Training For Leads AND Potential Leads

3.) Create a Maintain a Succession Plan
