About Stephen Rutledge

20 plus years in Restaurant Management including roles of General Manager, Corporate Trainer and Director of Operations. My main focus in all the positions I\'ve had is training. Understanding there are hundreds of different techniques to train someone and only several of them work with each uniquely different individual is the key to training an employee and running a profitable, successful restaurant. That results in a more solid crew, less turnover and higher profits.
