Pub Staff Performance Management for Success
Running a pub is more than pulling pints — it’s about managing people. Too many landlords fall into the trap of only addressing staff performance when problems boil over. That reactive approach wastes talent, drives turnover, and stalls growth.A smarter way is the Performance Management Cycle: Plan → Coach → Review. By setting clear expectations, tailoring coaching styles (think Hersey & Blanchard’s Situational Leadership II), and recognising good performance, landlords can build a culture of continuous improvement. The result? Motivated staff, stronger service, and a more profitable pub.

Beyond Pints: How Personal Development Plans Keep Pubs Thriving
Staff turnover is draining pubs of time, money, and talent — but there’s a smarter fix than discounts or constant hiring. Personal Development Plans (PDPs) give landlords and staff a roadmap for growth, built around three simple questions: Where am I now? Where do I want to be? How can I get there? By investing in PDPs, pubs create engaged teams, better customer service, and stronger profits.
