How do Peta and her team resolve the issue of reallocating payroll to the kitchen staff?1 pointThey decide to hire part-time line cooks.They agree that the added revenue from the tablets will allow Sauce & Spoon to hire more kitchen staff.They discuss several ideas, but do not resolve the issue.They agree to hire more bussers and runners to ensure the success of the tablet project.

In the last quiz, you reviewed how Peta addressed lack of participation in a retrospective meeting. In this quiz, you will identify the ways Peta encourages accountability in the retrospective.Peta: In looking at the customer survey, it shows that we didn't hit our goal of decreasing table turn time. I'm sure we'll be able to speed that up as we go, but I'm curious if anyone has any thoughts as to why we're seeing guests spend the same amount of time at the table with the tablets as before we installed them.Deanna: We might want to look at waitstaff training. The waitstaff might need to adjust how they go about their interactions, which could cut down on turnover.Gilly: We might also want to look at kitchen speed.Peta: Let’s look at everything that might contribute, including the kitchen turnaround. I think we all have to do our part to contribute to the goals. I did want to note that Alex, your location actually had a quicker turn time than Gilly's location by about fifteen minutes. Do you have any insights?Alex: We just encouraged the waitstaff to speed up the visits. That was one of our objectives, and since the tablets sped up checkout, it was easy.Peta: Gilly, what were you doing differently?Gilly: I know my customers. I know they want to come to dinner and hang out and have a good time, so I instructed my staff to let them.Peta: Gilly, I know that the team—including you and me—had discussed that one of the objectives we wanted to hit was speeding up table turn. We know that the tablets create efficiencies to do that, so we need your location to start focusing on that objective.Gilly: I don't want to rush my customers through dinner.Peta: I can understand that. But is that all customers? Maybe some customers do want a quick dining experience, while others want to hang out.Gilly: Possibly. But I don't want the tablets to change the experience, which is why they come to Sauce & Spoon.Peta: We do want to speed up the dining experience at your location, but we can talk more about ways to identify guests who might want to hang out a little longer and those who would like a more efficient dining experience. Maybe the majority would like a faster dinner, and we could help them get that experience. Would you take the initiative to have your waitstaff speed up dining time but also be sensitive to guests who might want to stay longer?Gilly: Sure, we can chat more.

Merve and Silvia together own 75% of the sharesand are Managing Director and Company Secretary respectively. Roger and Oliver own 25% of theremaining shares between them.Although they are minority shareholders, Roger and Oliver like to be informed about everything thatis happening in the business. As they have indicated that they might like to invest more money inPets, Merve and Silvia have indulged them by discussing company matters that are not within theirpower as shareholders.However, this practice has become very time consuming, especially because Merve and Silvia andRoger and Oliver disagree about many things. For example, Merve and Silvia are convinced that Petsneeds to capitalise on the new interest in pet ownership by purchasing a dog kennel that breeds pugdogs. Roger and Oliver are opposed to buying that business on grounds that it is a puppy farm. Thereis an acrimonious discussion about the topic, one of many.Merve and Silvia have recently met Brandy, who runs a small private equity business. She seespotential in Pets and has offered to refinance Pets.

They tell you that there is a‘desperate need to harmonise relationships between the shareholders and management’ and thatthey would be willing to Roger and Oliver 75% of the estimated market price, as calculated by thecompany accountant. Considering the equitable limit on minority voting power, is the constitutionalamendment within Merve and Silvia’s power? Explain your answer
