Worldchefs - World Association of Chefs' Societies’ Post

I met Massimo Bottura, a Michelin-star chef, and learned a valuable lesson in humility and customer experience. I had dinner at Casa Maria Luigia, one of Massimo Bottura's renowned restaurants. The meal was incredible, but what stood out was Chef Bottura himself. He walked into the dining room and stopped at each table to speak with his guests. He shared stories, posed for photos, and made everyone feel valued. This was a master class in providing exceptional experiences. Despite his busy schedule, he took the time to engage with us personally. This gesture showed respect and humility. As a CEO and founder of Living While Leading, I strive to create similar experiences for my clients. It’s not just about the service I provide but how I make people feel. Key takeaways from this experience: - Engage personally: Take time to connect with your clients. - Show respect: Value their presence and contributions. - Be humble: No matter your success, stay grounded. These lessons are invaluable in building strong, lasting relationships. How do you ensure exceptional experiences for your clients? #Leadership #CustomerExperience #Humility

Opening a new restaurant is like orchestrating a symphony. At AA Hospitality, I had the opportunity to be part of three pre-opening projects. From designing the menu to building kitchen operations from the ground up, each day was a test of endurance, creativity, and leadership. The experience taught me how to streamline processes while keeping the soul of the cuisine intact. Pre-opening challenges often feel insurmountable, but it’s these experiences that shape who we are as professionals. #PreOpeningChallenges #CulinaryLeadership #BuildingFromTheGroundUp

A talented chef can create amazing dishes regardless of the restaurant. Similarly, a great salesperson knows how to sell, regardless of the company they’re with. Remember, when I say ‘okay,’ it doesn’t always mean ‘yes.’ Sometimes, it means there’s more to consider. It’s all about understanding the nuances. #SalesTips #Leadership #SalesSkills #Communication #Understanding #Nuances #SalesMindset #ProfessionalGrowth #CareerAdvice #SalesExcellence #LinkedInInsights
