583: Unifying Teams Across Multiple Cafes

When you have multiple cafes and a distributed staff, getting everyone on the same page in the operations can be very challenging. In fact, it happens to be the number one reason why businesses with 2+ locations start to see a downturn in quality of product, culture, and guest experience.  Today on the show we will be answering a question from the KTTS listening audience about how to unify teams across multiple cafes. These tips come from a lot or personal experience doing things well and not so well, in addition to the lessons learned from our guests on the show and lessons learned through KTTS consulting.  Your Standards Leadership Distribution Supporting Leadership Tracking and addressing issues with frequency and intention  Communication and Accountability  Meaningful all staff meetings KEY HOLDER COACHING GROUPS ARE BACK!  Spring 2026 Applications are now open!
