SHIFT BREAK! Don't Build Compromise Into Your Business

What happens when we build into our systems exceptions for the less than desirable habits of staff? Well for starters we rob that staff member of the opportunity to grow and receive correction to meet the standards. We then rob our business of reach its potential as we now erode the foundations from the inside. Lastly we rob the customer of a great experience because all the little compromises and permissions we give to issues that should be addressed, make their way into the cup.  Today on Shift Break we will be talking about why operators should not build into their systems and policies, exceptions and leeway that further promotes bad behaviors and habits. It is important that we consistently call ourselves and others up to high standards rather than lowering them for avoidance or convenience.  Related episodes:  496: Hard Decisions and High Standards Grace and High Standards SHIFT BREAK : Setting and meeting Standards in the Coffee Shop     KEYS TO THE SHOP CONSULTING HELPS YOU MAKE YOU CAFE BETTER!
