Beef ‘O’ Brady’s: Hiring and Training Great Employees

In any business, the people you hire are essential to your success—they are the impression that customers will get of your business. Reed Parker, the owner of a Beef ‘O’ Brady’s franchise in Dallas, Georgia, believes that behavioral questions are the key when you look at hiring someone. You need to know if the person you are hiring will fit into your model and help your team move towards their shared goals. With the right questions, you can figure that out. And when you have a team of employees, it’s important to motivate them every day, at all different times of the day. Set goals—smart goals, realistic goals, stretch goals—that will help you and your team to reach really high. If people are striving for something, they will achieve more than if they are just present to do a job.
