Question Everything You Were Taught: Andrew Dana on Rewriting the Rules of Hospitality
About this episode
Andrew Dana discusses how he challenges traditional restaurant management practices as an industry outsider.
For over a decade, I ran my restaurants the way I was taught to run other people's restaurants. I led my teams the way others had led me and I never questioned it. But what if you never got that education? Andrew Dana owns more than half a dozen successful restaurants and he began his journey as a restaurateur with absolutely no operational experience. He just did what he thought was right and followed his gut instincts. Today we go through how an industry outsider is challenging the way we look at our restaurants and our industry.
