As leaders, it's crucial to define what sets us apart. -Peter Begg
For me, it boils down to three key elements: people, culture, and programs.
At Lions, we've built our strategy around quality and food safety, starting with the right people in the right roles.
Without them, even the best programs are ineffective.
#Leadership#Differentiation#PeopleFirst#CultureMatters#ProgramExecution
And I think, you know, as leaders and it doesn't matter what function you're leading, you have to have, I'll call it, you know, what do you stand for? What is it that differentiates you from others? And for me, I, I boil it down to three things. It's about people, it's about culture and it's about programs. And in fact, that's how we've started to develop our strategy at Lions around quality and food safety because it starts with the people if you don't have the right people. In the right roles, you can have the best programs in the world. You still need people to execute them. We.

What does leadership mean to you?
Here at C&D Foods, we know that effective leadership is central to our success as a business, and our service to customers, now and in the future. That’s why we’re committed to nurturing people within our business with our Emerging Leaders programme, ensuring that the talent of today becomes the leaders of tomorrow.

High labor cost % is rarely to do with staffing levels.
And unless the team has the correct information.
Telling them that labor % is too high leaves them one choice.
Run short staffed.
Which isn’t good for anyone.
Who’s with me❓

Ps. We teach restaurant operators a simpler, more sustainable way to manage labor every day. You can find out more about it here…

Workplace Empathy Consultant. Keynote Speaker. Founder at Handle with Care Consulting
In my work with The Villages, the leadership teams participate in the supervisor trainings.
In contrast, I remember a Handle with Care Consulting session that I did a few years ago with a company. It was billed as an "all-staff" event.
However, when the session came, all of the members of the executive team failed to show up.
"Where was top leadership? Why didn't they think they needed to be here?" was one of the indignant (and observant) comments on a post-session survey.
Yes, empathy matters for supervisors and for middle management.
But leadership errs (and creates awful optics) if they think that this is not a skill-set that matters at the top.
Love seeing you there, Brian Laskey, MNM, SPHR, Shannon Schumacher, Nancy Gwin, Amy Sanderson and team!

Lessons from FX’s ‘The Bear': The Ripple Effect of Purpose-Driven Leadership 🍽️🌟
In a powerful scene from 'The Bear' (S3E10), Chef Thomas Keller educates Carmy on the true essence of being a chef. It's not just about cooking - it's about nurturing an entire ecosystem. This includes nurturing yourself, your team, your customers, and even your suppliers like gardeners, fishers, and foragers who provide the essential ingredients.
This perspective resonates deeply in the business world. True leadership isn't just about serving customers or maximizing profits. It's about nurturing your own growth and vision, developing your team's skills and potential, creating value for customers, and supporting your entire supply chain and community.
When we expand our view of who we serve, we unlock greater purpose and impact. We see how our daily work ripples outward, touching lives we may never meet directly. 🌊
This mindset shift challenges us to:
🤔 Think beyond traditional stakeholders
🌎 Consider our broader impact on society and the environment
📈 Strive for continuous improvement, however small
The goal? To nurture and elevate our entire business ecosystem, bit by bit, day by day. 🌱
What if we all approached our work this way?
How might it transform our companies, industries, and communities? 💡
