556: Myths Owner Believe Part 1
Monday, 18 August, 2025
What we believe is often a mixture of what we heard , what we have experienced, and what is convenient for us in the moment. The truth is, we are desperate for certainty and as our desperation grows, our ability to be reasonable and discern goes down. Thats when ideas turn into rules based on nothing more that our desire for getting an answer. Then a myth is born. This is part one of a 2 part episode series that will break down about a dozen myths that have wormed their way into the minds of owners so deeply that to question them may sometimes seem silly or even dangerous. Today we will be talking about these myths: "Automation saves you on labor and training" "Independent cafes deserve support" "Inspiring words create change" "The right people will just get it" "If it works for them, it will work for me" Related episodes! 373 : The Owner’s Role: 5 Behaviors for Effectiveness 243 : Encore Episode! “The Sleepwalking Barista (Owner)” Breathing Life Into Your Coffee Shop 485: Your Shop Vs the Industry KEY HOLDER COACHING GROUPS!
