One group operates out of a kitchen, while the other is surrounded by network servers… So what exactly makes restaurant and IT staff alike?
The answer? They are both frontline workers, a class of employees at the very centre of production. They're also set to take increased prominence in their respective organisations as digital transformation offers them a greater impact on day-to-day labour. Innovations such as Testos Saveris restaurant quality management system is evidence of this change.
Turning a problem into a solution.
Over the next few years, there will be an influx of products released with the intention to help both kitchen staff and IT workers. Understanding where the challenges lie for executives hoping to empower their cybersecurity experts and network specialists can assist in helping restaurant owners recognise how to tackle and solve the issues they may face too.
Here are three limiting factors, identified by Forbes, that can be applied to both parties.
- Poor training and developmental tools;
- Lack of customisable, specific solutions;
- Uncertainty regarding national and local regulations.
Effective staff can mean the difference between a successful and failing restaurant. They can improve the reputation of the location, as well as assist in avoiding non-compliance by strictly adhering to food codes and standards. This type of performance is not dissimilar to the type of disruption that executives may face with inadequate IT staff. Restaurant personal just need the right set of tools to effectively do their job on a daily basis.
