Idea Fair
Training Manager
Description
Since making The Service Trainer position a high priority, we have seen an increase in general knowledge, teamwork, retention, and job satisfaction from our employees. Our weekly menu test’s scores and the dining staff’s overall confidence have greatly improved which has naturally increased the member dining experience.
Implementation
This idea was implemented after Clubhouse Management took extra initiative to focus heavily on training and employee development. This position was crafted carefully to reflect our core values into this program. Our membership takes a great interest in our staff’s progression and growth and they enjoy seeing staff who was once their server, take on greater responsibilities within the club.
