Zaxby's Franchising requires a licensee's restaurant managers to pass a rigid certification program. After years of resistance, constantly having to find and chase down uncertified managers and force them to train, we decided we needed a better solution. In this session, you will learn how our Licensee Managed Training Program increased compliance by 300%, saved thousands of dollars and produced better training and better managers.
Listeners can expect to take away from this webcast:
1) How to increase training adoption by giving managers control
2) How to create a new “training manager” role to ensure consistency and quality
3) How to use technology to include gamification and customized learning
4) How to analyze the business to meet our audiences needs to provide a win on both sides
