Description

Want fewer fires, stronger managers, and a calmer shift without losing speed? We dig into the simple coaching moves that turn constant problem-solving into shared ownership. Hospitality leader and author Jason E. Brooks joins us to unpack three deceptively small skills—asking better questions, listening with intent, and giving feedback that actually lands in a roaring kitchen—and shows how they scale across multiple locations.

We explore:  

• choosing to coach instead of fix

• building trust to stop 2 a.m. calls

• listening that lowers defenses and reveals context

• giving feedback that lands in a loud kitchen
