FULL COMP: The Voice of the Restaurant Industry Revolution Culture Is Your Competitive Edge: Lisa Schultz on Eliminating Drama and Creating High-Performing Teams
Most restaurants accept drama and dysfunction as part of the business—but what if eliminating them was the key to higher profits and better retention? Lisa Schultz, Managing Partner of Zingerman’s Roadhouse, has spent the last 20 years proving that culture is the real secret to success. By implementing no-drama leadership, open-book finance, and employee empowerment, she’s built a restaurant where people don’t just show up for a paycheck—they show up to be part of something bigger. In this episode, we explore how to build a drama-free workplace, get employees to think like owners, and create a sustainable, profitable restaurant culture. If you’ve ever struggled with turnover, toxic teams, or disengaged staff, this conversation is for you.
