The most important role in your restaurant
The general manager is the most important person in the building.
​
-
They set the tone.
-
They decide what gets attention.
-
They build (or break) systems that determine whether the restaurant runs smoothly
​
If you don’t have a GM, that responsibility still exists — it just lives on you.
​
This framework shows you how a good GM thinks, prioritizes, and builds stability over time; built from over 20 years of real restaurant experience.
The Framework
5 Minutes a Day + 1 Weekly Project
Each week follows the same structure:
-
One focus at a time
-
Five short daily prompts that train you to notice what matters
-
One weekly project that turns that focus into a real system
​
You’re not trying to fix everything.
You’re building clarity, then reinforcing it.
​
Week by week, this creates:
-
Fewer decisions in your head
-
Clearer expectations for your team
-
Systems that actually get used
​
If you hired a good GM, this is exactly how they’d start.
Who This Program is For
This framework is for restaurant owners and managers who:
-
Are in the building regularly
-
Feel like everything still runs through them
-
Are repeating themselves more than they should
-
Want fewer decisions on their plate
-
Are willing to work on one thing at a time
​
You don’t need to have everything broken to start.
You just need to want it to run better.
Who It's Not For
This is not a fit if you’re:
-
Looking for a quick fix
-
Expecting someone else to “do it for you”
-
Not willing to change how you operate week to week
-
Hoping to skip the work and jump straight to results
​
This only works if you actually use it.
