Susie Ross

Founder

Waiter Training

Susie founded Waiter Training when she realized that restaurants might be able to utilize her extensive background in successful sales in the restaurant industry and as an instructor. She obtained her degree in Speech/Communications with an emphasis in Theatre, from Metropolitan State College of Denver and made a successful career of selling and serving food and beverages in the restaurant industry. Her background in the restaurant business runs the gamut from fast-paced, breakfast and lunch service to a more formal, evening and dinner atmosphere and spans nearly 15 years.

Building confidence in both experienced and inexperienced staff has become her trademark. Susie believes servers must approach the table with confidence and an ability to sell the menu, irrespective of the type of restaurant.

Classes are conducted with fun in mind. It has been proven that people of all ages learn better when there is fun, laughter and games involved in the learning process. Susie brings fun and creativity to her sales-oriented approach to serving guests in a restaurant.

Hotel Human Resources: The Biggest Challenges
The economic challenges of the past four years have led many hotel companies to re-examine the ways in which they do business and how they deploy talent. In many cases, the work did not go away and fewer people were left to carry on the tasks that had previously been shared among many. As we work our way out of the recession and look forward to a healthier economic environment, there is an understanding that despite recovering business levels, we may never see the return of former staffing levels. This "new norm" of operating with leaner teams has led Human Resources professionals and people managers to look at career development and growth opportunities in a new light. The March Hotel Business Review will take a look at some of the strategies being used by successful hotel brands, and techniques human resource directors are currently exploring.
