Five Essential Ingredients for Business Success shares the business secrets of three of the UK’s most successful restaurants in an entertaining, engaging and insightful way. It is based on the simple premise that the study of excellence in any domain will reveal lessons that can be transferred and applied to others.
The lessons revealed through Chris Parker’s unique, two-year study of The Waterside Inn, Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons and Gidleigh Park are of value for anyone wanting to improve the way their organisation operates and the level of success it attains. Five Essential Ingredients can be applied to blue-chip organisations, Education, Healthcare and all aspects of the public and private sector as well, of course, as the Hospitality and Catering industry.
And for those who are simply passionate about, or fascinated by, great restaurants and great food, this book provides exclusive behind-the-scenes insights into the people, the places and the processes that are at the heart of these three centres of excellence. Five Essential Ingredients is a storybook and a teaching manual that inspires, challenges and, through a mixture of revelation and discussion, shows just what it takes to excel!
