Episode Quotes
“Everything is really about the people, the people that we hire, the people that we serve, the guests that come in, and the community.”
“College is great, but I'd rather have someone that has already worked for us for six, seven years come into a new role than someone who's brand new out of college so we can continue to grow our people that way as well.”
“The way we treat our team is the way they're going to treat our guests.”
“There's a cost to turnover. It's expensive to have people leave and to retrain and to get them on benefits and to do all the termination of benefits. There’s a dollar amount that goes with that.”
“I don't want to work at the register. I can't keep up with those kids these days and all the buttons, so I need to make sure I’ve got the best team there and I want them working there. So, we're going to treat them great.”
“Even if someone is doing it 90 percent of the way you would do it, they're actually getting it done because you are not getting it done.”
“We've really found that we've been able to save some great people or some great relationships because just moving them to a different site, to work for a different structure, a different leader with different traits has really been really great as well.”
“Heart-centered leadership just really is about focusing on the people, really focusing on their feelings, really focusing on them as people and not as numbers, not as a transaction, not as a shift, not as just someone on the schedule, but really focusing as them as a person and how we can help them walk this journey through life.”
