So true no system equals chaos

@@vanessajoycecollett6607 Thank you for the comment! I think the one exception would be if the system is designed to produce Chaos.

First lesson I learned on my 1st Exec Chef job: You are "nothing" without a strong team. 👍🏼

[@GeraldLFordCMC]

Facts! That's usually a lesson learned the hard way

[@kenarnone]

Great insight Chef!

[@GeraldLFordCMC]

Thank you Chef, and thank you for being there for me for the past 25 years... yeah 25 years.

[@HealingHouse88]

Great to hear you blended art and science. Systems are the way to go! I hope many chefs become more productive and less stressed by using your systematized approach 👍

[@GeraldLFordCMC]

Thanks, I appreciate the comment. It took me a lot of time to be open to implementing systems.

Chef love the knowledge and teaching. It gave me a spark again as a Chef. I have one question or maybe you can make it a topic. If you had three books to learn or help your culinary journey what three important books would that be.

[@GeraldLFordCMC]

Thank you for the question. I will absolutely make a video about this! I think it depends on where in the journey the chef is. Early on. 1 Becoming a Chef, Dornenburg & Page 2. The Apprentice, Daniel Boulud 3. Institute Paul Bocuse, Hamlyn Mid Point (8 years in) 1. The Flavor Bible, Dornenburg & Page 2. 14 Laws of Leadership, John Maxwell 3. Work Clean, Dan Charnas Later on (15 years +) 1. Le Guide Culinaire, Escoffier 2. Lessons in Leadership, Charles Carroll 3. Leadershift, John Maxwell I hope that helps
