ABOUT YOUR INSTRUCTOR

MICHAEL SIDRA

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Working in food safety and Public Health for over a decade, I’ve seen plenty of unfortunate incidents where men, women, parents and children were affected by food-borne illness. Some were mild but others were a parents’ worst nightmare.

I witnessed food businesses destroyed and food business owners devastated.

If it wasn’t a food safety incident that destroyed their business, it was the lack of planning or business knowledge that was the knock out blow. I found that many people, especially new Canadians, started a food business because they can cook – and oh boy can they cook!

The problem is being a good cook doesn’t make you a good business owner.

So what does? I’ve always been interested in answering this question. What works? What doesn’t? What can I learn and what can I share to help others?

It’s what drives me!.

It’s why I devour books, attend at and speak in seminars, teach at Concordia University, why I completed an MBA degree, and a food safety/public health degree and of course food safety and HACCP auditing and inspection.

It’s why I started LeanRhino and food safety leaders!

I help people start and run amazing food businesses. Some of them, will change the world!

[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”HOW DOES A NAME LIKE LEANRHINO RELATE TO FOOD SAFETY?” tab_id=”1563845096373-9372955f-f5e7″][vc_column_text]

LeanRhino is a name and brand that represents what we want do to give back to the food industry. In order to succeed, food businesses need to be agile, not wasteful (hence the Lean part of the name) and diligent to protect their customers and brand. In many ways this is similar to the magnificent creatures called Rhinos:

  • Rhinos seem like slow, lumbering beasts, but can actually run between thirty to forty miles-per-hour.
  • Every successful Big business started small, but they didn’t stay small.
  • Despite weighing in between two to three tons, Rhino’s can jump and change directions quickly.
  • Big business that continually reinvent themselves stay big, by acting small.
  • Rhinos have poor eyesight but excellent sense of smell and hearing.

Too many business owners only see what they want to see. Sniffing and listening turn up more opportunities and customers.
A group of rhinos is called a “crash.”

So is too many businesses with no differing factor, other than lower price. The reason all the chain restaurants huddle together on corners of an intersection is because it works. The reasons chain restaurants are successful is consistency – customers often accept less taste and less guest experience over receiving consistency – you need to offer something new…

Rhinoceros skin is very thick, up to one and a half cm.

The more successful your business, the more that comes against you. Expect it. Don’t worry about it and don’t fight them. Spend all your time and energy and money on delighting the customers you already have and they will bring you more business than you can handle. The whiners & complainers die eventually.

Rhino’s often cover themselves in mud to protect their skin from insects and the sun.

There is a time for camouflage. You don’t have to yell an scream. Build a exceptional product and service and let the wowed customers do all the promotion for you. People believe what their friends tell them and recommended to them…its better to sell then to yell.

So now that you know a little about the name LeanRhino, we also called our food safety course, Food Safety Leaders because without strong leadership, a food safety culture is no possible.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”WHY SHOULD I USE LEAN RHINO FOR MY FOOD SAFETY TRAINING?” tab_id=”1563845118006-4a2a5640-fa3a”][vc_column_text]

Your food business is important to you – it’s important to your family and it’s important to your community so when you are looking for the best food safety training for you and/or your employees, why not go with the experts. The single biggest difference between a successful business and one that doesn’t make it is leadership.

To us, leadership means an unwavering commitment to food safety, great food and expert business management.

Surviving and thriving as an entrepreneur requires leadership – our Food Safety Leaders course gives you the tools to be lean, efficient and effective in building your company culture.

Michael is committed to teaching and doing whatever it takes to help you succeed.Contact Michael.
