Keys To The Shop : Equipping Coffee Shop Leaders 428 : Founder Friday | Maxwell Mooney's Final Chapter at Narrative Coffee and New Beginnings
Early on in the podcast (2019) I had Maxwell on to tell the story of Narrative and then 3 more times since then to discuss deeper topics related to running a great shop, dealing with challenges, and tools to success. I have known him for over a decade and believe he channels the kind of character and values the entire industry should aspire to.
Recently Maxwell made the decision to sell his ground breaking cafe, Narrative Coffee, to one of his long time baristas (Alex Sciarrotta...Himself an awesome leader and example) and move across the country to embark on a journey into the next chapter of his coffee career helping people open and run great coffee shops with Threadbare Coffee Consulting.
In this discussion of Maxwell's final chapter with Narrative we talk about what led to this decision, values that guide him, what he is most proud of after 7 years of Narrative Coffee, his thoughts on what is key for cafe owners today to focus on, and what have is doing now as a coach with Threadbare.
I am honored to have been able to feature Maxwell's story on this show and hope you are inspired by this and the other conversations we have had the pleasure of having with Maxwell.
