We'll start by understanding the three general categories and nine specific types of waste, including those eating away your profits in catering. We'll review everyday real-life examples of waste in catering that are right in front of you. You will develop a new perspective on the financial, mental, and physical consequences of waste!
During this thought-provoking and information-packed session, you will immediately start to see—to understand the nine different types of waste and be able to teach your staff—so you both move toward eliminating waste. Plus, making your work environment safer, more efficient, and extra rewarding, with added fun and increased profits too!
Return home knowing how to "fix what bugs you" so you and your staff start to act on those small incremental "two-step and second improvements" of eliminating waste that leads to large savings!
