Why does it feel so awkward and difficult to take action the way we know we need to as leaders in the coffee shop? If you are human, you feel a kind of resistance when it comes to making decisions, having those conversations, and generally taking decisive steps into leadership. What are we worried about? Well, there surely are some things we can fall prey to and need to guard against when using the authority of the role to serve others, but unless we get over the awkward first steps, we cannot truly serve well. 

Today on Shift Break we will be talking about how you can plan on this awkwardness and how you can overcome it so you can be the effective owner, manager, trainer, and leader your baristas and customers need you to be.
