Team Appreciations 🎉

Shout Out to Chef Abdi Farey: From Julia Ronyai, FOH Manager
I want to shout out Chef Abdi Farey, who was recently promoted to Jr Sous Chef at Origin, for his amazing leadership style! He has a few cooks that are very green to the industry on his team and it is such a joy to watch him coach them up. Today I witnessed as one of them fell behind on salmon during a busy service and he was letting her know not to feel rushed or get down on herself, and reinforced what a great job she was doing! We love leaders who lead with positivity and coach people up in the tough moments instead of punching down!
