Yeager, The Galley
	

Topic Area: K&B Specialty Training

A kitchen workstation is a new category of kitchen appliance, where
one can prepare, cook, serve, entertain and clean all in one central
and convenient place. The kitchen is even more functional and
ergonomic with a cooktop next to the workstation. This new linear
cooking concept is much more efficient than the traditional kitchen
work triangle layout.

Topic Area: Management

As a small business owner, do you feel that the next level of success
seems out of reach? Do you struggle to get out of your own way, often
feeling overwhelmed and frustrated? In this seminar, we will each
examine how we see ourselves, our business, and the way we operate
on a daily basis. With our mindset at the core of this exercise, we'll
explore our business processes and team issues to identify the most
impactful areas of change. Then, we'll gain insights as to how we might
shift our perceptions and practices for the better. We'll each create
specific, actionable steps that will allow us to play a bigger game and
reach that next level of success.
