  The No-Nonsense Guide to Hiring, Training, and Keeping Great People in Hospitality. The pressure is real. You need someone on the floor or at the front desk today, so you hire the first warm body who shows up. Six weeks later they're gone, and you're back to square one, except now you've wasted time and money training them. This guide will help you break that expensive cycle.

  What's in this guide
