Nailing the interview Building and Maintaining Positive Relationships with Your GM One of the more critical relationships in a club operation is that between the General Manager and the Executive Chef. The more successful GM/Executive Chef relationships are found at clubs where the Executive Chef is a team player, and the General Manager has a genuine interest in their operation. This panel aims to identify key factors that General Manager’s pursue in an Executive Chef search and break down the relationship between the two roles as they face similar levels of responsibilities on different ends of the operational spectrum. During the panel discussion, view a live, hands-on cooking demonstration that displays the style and techniques that General Managers are looking for in pursuit of an Executive Chef.
