Mistakes cost you both time and money, and although mistakes are never unavoidable, Callahan’s is successful because Habosky implements many things that minimize mistakes and allow for more wealth to be built. As Nickels states, the more you can produce in any given period, the more you are worth to companies. (Nickels) This philosophy is how Callahan’s trains employees. Employees must master all basic American and international drinks in addition to being able cook all food items before being placed on the schedule. (Habosky, 2015) Employees are trained in cash register competency and taught technology troubleshooting techniques. (Habosky, 2015) Employees go through visual food presentation techniques and are required to learn efficiency techniques that maximize time on the job site. (Habosky, 2015) Finally before being placed on the payroll all employees must complete a day shift and night shift “dry run” without any major issues. This extensive amount of training gives employees much more empowerment, which is essential to producing high-quality goods and services.

(Habosky, 2015) Jon Taffer states, “It’s your people stupid! Everything comes from our people. Our front line is our bottom line. You must hire people that have magnetic personalities that are true business assets.” (Taffer,
