A structured onboarding programme for restaurant owners and regional managers bringing a new restaurant manager into the role. Covers operational systems and procedures, financial management and P&L understanding, team leadership and scheduling, supplier and vendor relationships, compliance and licensing requirements, and the 30-60-90 day milestone plan that sets expectations for the critical first quarter.

Restaurant managers fail most often because they're promoted from strong operational performers without receiving management training. They know how to run a shift but not how to read a P&L, manage staff performance, or handle a health inspection. This checklist ensures the new manager receives the complete skill set for the role.
