85. Chick Fil A Owner/Operator Justin Lindsey Joins Us Today to Talk About the 3-Day Workweek

Today we welcome Justin Lindsey to The Cutting Onions Podcast. Justin has been a Chick-fil-A Owner/Operator for nearly 14 years. He is currently the Owner/Operator of Chick-fil-A Kendall located in Miami, Florida. Chick-fil-A Kendall is one of the Top 5 busiest restaurants in the entire Chick-fil-A chain, out of nearly 3,000 total restaurants. Justin employs a staff of over 160 team members & 17 leaders. Justin is an innovator at heart. He lives by a personal mission of “leading with generosity.” That mission was at the center of Justin creating a first-of-its kind 3 Day Workweek for full time team members & leaders in his business. This 3 Day Workweek has been featured in media interviews & news publications all around the country. It was even featured in international news markets for its revolutionary approach to restaurant scheduling. The 3 Day Workweek has positively transformed Justin’s business & granted his team the precious gift of time. Team members have more time available to focus on school, take care of children, & travel. Of all the benefits that can be offered to team members, there are few as impactful as a 3 Day Workweek. Justin has helped many other Chick-fil-A locations & even businesses in other industries (i.e.: Casinos, Full-Service Restaurants, & Hotels) to implement 3 Day Workweeks.  A 3 Day Workweek can be executed in nearly any environment utilizing Justin’s approach to scheduling. To assist in the implementation of a 3 Day Workweek, Justin has collaborated in the development of a mobile app called Shift Fish that can be found on the Apple App Store & Google Play. It provides the flexibility & framework necessary to successfully roll out a 3 Day Workweek. This was an absolutely incredible conversation, and we cannot wait for you to hear it!
