Nation's Restaurant News honored five leading executives with the annual Golden Chain Award, which recognizes outstanding leadership and brand stewardship. Each honoree was interviewed by a former Golden Chain winner in a top-to-top discussion covering strategies for success, brand victories and challenges and how best to motivate teams.
In this exclusive audio clip, Cracker Barrel president and CEO Sandra Cochran is interviewed by G.J. Hart, president, CEO and executive chairman of California Pizza Kitchen and winner of a Golden Chain Award in 2006, when he was with Texas Roadhouse. NRN editor-in-chief Sarah Lockyer facilitated the interviews.
NRN published condensed versions of these interviews but is now making the full interviews available in audio format in an exclusive series, Lessons in Leadership, available on NRN.com and podcasting platform SoundCloud.
