Lefty’s 11 Points of Culture

We are committed to an environment for our customers and team members that is consistent and unwavering and based upon the values we believe in, and that commitment has inspired

our 11 Points of Culture.

#1 Commitment

I am either 100% committed or 0% committed – there is no in between. I recognize and embrace that even though I may work part-time hours, I still have full commitment to our processes, our customers, my teammates, our culture, and our vision.

#2 Ownership

If it’s going to be, it’s up to me! I take complete responsibility, accountability, and ownership for ensuring my tables and customers have an amazing experience, being a caring and professional team member, and striving towards my personal goals and our team goals. I take action and own every situation and do whatever it takes to complete what I notice needs doing. I am proud of the business, my teammates, our food, our service, and our customer loyalty. I will hold myself accountable to make everyday at Lefty’s a great day.

#3 Excellence

I strive to deliver excellence at all times. My customers deserve excellence and my team deserves excellence. The food I prepare and serve will always be of the highest quality. The customers I serve will always receive my full attention and professionalism. My team and my company can rely on my commitment to excellence with every task I do. Good enough isn’t.

#4 Communication

I never assume. I communicate clearly and thoroughly and I understand that ‘true communication’ – is the response I get. I will immediately communicate any information that may affect the safety, enjoyment, or experience of my customers, or my team members. I speak positively at all times about Lefty’s Cafe and our team, and only address concerns in private with the person involved. I am strongly aware that I communicate with my tone and body language as well as with my voice and I take care to ensure my overall communication leaves customers with a fantastic experience.

#5 Consistency

I acknowledge that Lefty’s reputation has been built on quality and consistency. I strive to deliver a consistent experience and product to my customers at all times. I also strive to be consistent in carrying out the process and systems outlined as part of my position.

#6 Systems

I respect the need for systems, and the thought that went into all our current systems. I follow the company systems at all times. When I see an opportunity to improve a current system I communicate my ideas at the appropriate times and situations.

#7 Education

I believe that if I am willing to learn, nothing can stop me; and if I’m not willing to learn, nothing can help me. I am a lifelong learner. I always embrace the education and training provided to me by Lefty’s and I always look to learn on my own terms as well. I will always be open to looking at new ways of doing things, and I help educate my teammates.

#8 Pride

I have pride in myself, my team members, or food, our company, and our culture. I understand that how I do one thing is how I do everything, and I take pride in everything I do. I will ensure that I can look back and be proud of every moment of everyday – proud of the way I served and treated our customers, proud of the way I looked after our restaurant and team members, and proud of myself.

#9 Trust

I trust my team members, and my team members and customers can always trust me. I never forget there are several moving parts that make up a great day at our restaurant and that I must have trust, and be trustworthy. I can be relied on. I am a reliable person, team member, and customer service provider. I can be trusted for my consistency in performance, actions, behaviour, and mindset. I trust that our business is always looking after its people, customers and community, and our business can in turn trust in me.

#10 Community

I am proud to live, work, and make an impact in my community. I am committed to ensuring our restaurant is a safe, friendly, honest, and reliable community foundation that provides great food, careers, and financial and social impact to the community and surrounding area.

#11 Fun

I enjoy myself, my team members, my customers, and my career at our Lefty’s. I understand that fun is contagious, and that my demeanor, tone, and body language can significantly impact the enjoyment and experience of my customers and all around me. I will only remain at our restaurant as long as I am having fun, and not a day longer.
