A Restaurant Business Training Program 'Guru' Introduced by Indian Restaurants Association in NZ

The success of any restaurant is dependent on the workforce working in the restaurant. A well trained working professional in the restaurant will not only increase the profit margins, but also save time and money. Running a restaurant is not about making some delicious meals and serving it to the customers. There are a lot of elements that contribute to the success of an Indian restaurant in New Zealand. Every employee of the restaurant is only useful if the training they received is good enough or they are only as good as their training is.

GURU is a Restaurant Business Training Program by Indian Restaurants Association in New Zealand or IRANZ. The purpose of introducing this restaurant business training program is to train the restaurant owners and their respective teams as to how to run a restaurant ideally without incurring losses and increasing the growth curve. The program also assists new Indian Restaurant owners with the necessary legal help they require at every step.

The program ensures that every member of each restaurant team receives continuous training to excel in the competitive industry; starting from the staff in the kitchen and waiters to the managers and receptionists at the front desk.

The working staff of any restaurant is the face of the restaurant and a customer's first impression. The team is also responsible for the creation of the entire dining experience, from the seating arrangements for serving desserts and finger bowls after the meal and finally the cleaning.

Hence the key to a successfully expanding Indian restaurant is a team that is professional, competent, and well trained.

Increasing the overall efficiency of your restaurant

One of the main aspects of well-trained staff in a restaurant is ensuring that your restaurant runs efficiently and effectively, even when you are not around to supervise. When every member of your team is working efficiently, there is no slowing down of the organization. Your whole operation runs smoothly without any hindrances. When your entire team works fast and efficiently, it means there are faster table turns and more money coming in, which is the ultimate goal.

Moreover, when your staff is well trained and educated, they feel they are also a part of the team, and this gives them the confidence to carry themselves better while working. A confident smile is always welcome when you enter a restaurant; the customers also feel that they are in the right place.

Improved relationships with the management and a positive vibe in the atmosphere

The cordial relationship between the administration and the employees is crucial for the success of an Indian restaurant. Hence a formal restaurant training will help in the promotion and maintenance of healthy relationships between the restaurant management and the employees. It is essential that your employees feel valued. When employees feel valued, they are happy and take pride in doing their work more efficiently. And, this attitude eventually creates a positive drive in the restaurant environment. Therefore, someone from management must be involved, along with professionals in the field, in the training of the employees.

When employees spend considerable time with the management it creates a bonding, which is reliable enough.

Finally, you can make more money

When your staff is trained and is happy, it is less likely that your team may quit mid-shift. So your staff will be with you longer, serve the customers coming in better, sell them better, provide excellent service during their time of stay and work efficiently. And, if you are still unaware, these are the components that ensure that there is more income coming in to the restaurant.

And, the main objective of IRANZ is to sustain and help in the expansion of its member Indian restaurants, which the program GURU helps in fulfilling.
