109: Breaking The Bottleneck

MAR 2, 202620 MIN

Description

Ever felt that uneasy pull that says there’s more growth on the table, but you don’t have the energy or structure to reach it? We’ve been there. This week we share a pivotal shift: Solutions by Christin is now Columbine Hospitality, and we’re pairing a clear visionary role with a proven integrator to scale the impact of our coaching for independent multi-unit restaurant operators.We break down what actually changes when a founder stops being the bottleneck. That starts with the visionary–integrator model: Christin owns relationships, content, and long-term direction while Andrew, our new COO and longtime collaborator, drives systems, accountability, and execution. Together we rebuilt the mission and core values, mapped a 1, 5, and 10-year vision, and set concrete financial targets that align people, process, and profit. You’ll hear how a weekly leadership cadence and quarterly resets create the consistency multi-unit brands need to reduce chaos, elevate managers, and deliver a guest experience that sticks.If you feel stuck between firefighting and strategy, this conversation gives you a path: name your unique ability, hire to your gaps, and install a cadence that keeps everyone moving in the same direction. Subscribe, share this with a fellow operator, and leave a review to help more restaurant leaders scale with confidence.P.S. Ready to take your restaurant to the next level?
