Church's Texas Chicken’s Post

The chicken segment is one of the most dynamic and competitive among the large restaurant chains in the U.S. And while Chick-fil-A continues to dominate and Popeyes is taking over the 2nd in the rank, there has been significant movement in the rank among other mid-size leading chains over the last ten years. It goes to show that in the restaurant industry, you can never rest. Leaders are waking up to the realization that if they’re not growing fast they’re dying slowly.  Outgrowing and outsmarting your competitors requires using the power of long-term thinking. #restaurants #chicken #strategy #leadership

"Women make up nearly 70% of the restaurant industry’s frontline workforce, but just 38% of executive roles," reports Alicia Kelso. Luckily, many franchises are becoming increasingly aware of these statistics, and are working to make a change. For example, Diversified Restaurant Group, a Taco Bell and Arby’s franchise company, created this new Women in Leadership Initiative. This initiative is all about providing women a chance to network with one another, share expertise, and hone their skills. Hopefully, we'll see more corporations in the restaurant industry put a stronger emphasis on getting women into leadership roles. #RestaurantIndustry #WomenInLeadership #LeadershipInitiative

Discover our recent case from our co-brand partners Fox School of Business at Temple University, "Chick-Fil-A: Fighting Chicken Sandwich and Culture Wars," authored by Bertrand Guillotin, MBA, DBA. This is Guillotin's second case on the fast-food restaurant brand, which is currently the most popular restaurant chain for Gen Zs, according to a recent survey. This time, the case focused on a new CEO who kickstarted a refresh and a new beginning for the billion-dollar family-owned iconic chicken sandwich leader, as it expanded globally amid culture wars. "I think the fact that they had a new CEO who courageously embraced DEI and built on his father’s and grandfather’s legacy of business achievements in the global fast-food segment they invented was very unique. That’s why I wanted to write another case," said the best-selling author.

There is a massive shift happening in the restaurant industry. But only the top 5% have it figured out. Rather than trying to squeeze blood from a stone financially. They are going all in on people. Because they are all realizing the same thing. That people centric is the future. And profit centric is the past. Especially in the restaurant industry.
