By empowering these managers, the General Manager ensures a cohesive effort toward improving the overall restaurant performance, customer satisfaction, and employee engagement.

Additionally, the General Manager is responsible for the recruitment and development of Department and Shift Managers to maintain a strong leadership pipeline and ensure the restaurant’s sustained success.
