Lesson #2: Keep it Simple
Puck has never been one for pretensions. Despite being a gourmet chef who caters to the who’s who of Hollywood and many of America’s other elite, Puck has refused to succumb to the glitz and the airs of many of the other top chefs. He has kept his recipes simple and their presentation equally so, his restaurant designs unfussy and his overall message clear-cut: “I think people can walk by, and they see the menu. It’s not intimidating and the food is interesting. If they get good food, friendly service in a nice environment, people will come back and tell their friends.”

Lesson #3: Do Not Let Your Business Become Static
“Keep moving all the time,” says Ramsay. “That’s the exciting thing about cooking in this country: we are seasonal, so every three months there’s a move. We’re moving from spring into summer and suddenly the food becomes a lot lighter.”

Lesson #2: Make Yourself Accessible To Your Customers
Rachael Ray has a secret ingredient to her success, but it is not the cayenne pepper or diced garlic she uses in her recipes. What makes Ray stands out from her peers and the likes of Martha Stewart is that Ray is human. She makes food with regular ingredients found in a normal grocery store and she does not apologize if she goofs up on air, which she does. Ray is just like the rest of her viewers, and it is that down to earth nature that has propelled her to the top.

Lesson #4: Learn to See a Problem for its Potential
When Ray moved from New York City back to her hometown of Lake George, New York, she was not quite sure what life had in store for her yet. She had had some success as a food buyer, but knew that was not what she wanted to be doing for the rest of her life. All she knew was that she was tired of life in the big city, and went back home to figure things out. Little did she know that it would be a life-changing decision for her.

Procrastination Attack! Beat the Clock
I have to admit, one of my big vices is coffee. I drink different kinds, but as I sit and write or do any other work at my desk in the evening and into the night, you will usually see a cup of Java close to me. To make this posting make any sense, I must also admit that I really don't like to do laundry, to take out garbage or to deal with dirty or clean dishes. (a domestic goddess I am not...)

How to Evaluate a Franchisor’s Training Program
Not long ago I took a trip to Tuscany and spent a week in a cooking class. Before the trip I spent time researching my options. I wanted to know who would be teaching the class, what courses and dishes would be covered, how hand-on the class was, if wine-pairings with the dishes would be addressed and if the class included trips to the local farmer’s markets to select fresh produce. Finding just the right cooking school was important to me because I would be spending a significant amount of money traveling to Italy and I wanted my experience to be well worth my time and effort. For a woman interested in buying a franchise, evaluating the training a franchise business offers should involve even greater research – after all, this is about your future – not a vacation.

On Leadership and Doing Dishes
Leadership is something that has a starting point in everyone who takes up the charge to get something done through and with other people. For some, the starting point in their leadership journey is subtle, progressing and steady. For others, it comes at a moment's notice with a call to duty. For me, it came from leading from the middle of the pack when I was 9-years old. And it all started from a deep hatred. The hatred of doing dishes!
