Restaurant Expert Witness, Howard Cannon - Featured Speaker for Panera Bread Management

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Sept. 4, 2013 - PRLog -- Restaurant Expert Witness, Howard Cannon - Featured Speaker for Panera Bread Management

As featured speaker for Panera Bread management in Pittsburgh last week, Howard Cannon - America’s most visible Restaurant Expert Witness, delivered an inspirational perspective on the correlation of attitude and profitability in the restaurant industry to approximately 110 attendees.

In his trademark thought-provoking style, Cannon urged management to remember that they are in the “hospitality” industry after all.  “Yes, it’s important to hit the numbers; but, in doing so, we should never lose focus of the customers we are trying to serve, or risk forfeiting the valuable employees that we work so hard to acquire and train.”  Cannon further states, “As the attitude of management and employees improve, so then does profitability of the restaurant or franchise.”

As an author, CEO, and having over 26 years of experience in the restaurant, bar, and hospitality industry, Howard has spoken at countless industry events, corporate gatherings, culinary institutes, universities, and high schools across the country and around the world; and, through the use of passion, humor, memorable analogies, industry know how, and storytelling, he has created content that is like nothing else available in the world today.
