I’m not talking about MY best job ever – or yours. I’m talking about your employees.
The Black Sheep just celebrated their 20th anniversary. They threw a party for Nick (the owner) and invited a lot folks who’d worked there over the years. The party was hosted by a chef who used to work at the sheep, and left to buy out a second restaurant Nick started – but that’s another story.
The first thing Nick told me about the party was that his existing staff (especially newer hires) were able to “get the vibe.” It was great for them to talk to people who had worked there 10 years prior telling them, “I didn’t realize it at the time, but this is the best job I’ve ever had.”
How may of your ex-employees would say that?
How much effort do you spend trying to make it their best job?
I bet there’s a correlation.
