Roland Dickey, Jr. has taken a family business and increased its size twenty-five fold in less than ten years, and is sharing his secrets to pro-active business leadership in new blog posts.
Dallas, TX, United States of America – April 30, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —
Roland Dickey, Jr. is a business leader who has a foot in both the past and the future. Heir to a small, regional chain of barbecue fast-casual restaurants, Roland went to business school and cut his teeth in other, larger scale businesses before returning to his inheritance with a mission. In nine years, he has taken the Dickey’s Barbecue Franchise from 20 to 500 stores. His personal website has one foot in the past and one in the future, too, and his blog combines case studies of past successes with guidance for pursuing future ambitions.
Roland Dickey, Jr. has created a series of editorials sharing some of the most influential principles that have defined his own management and leadership style. One such article explores legendary coach Vince Lombardi’s emphasis on the importance of time — the irreplaceable resource, the use of which reflected discipline, momentum and ultimately greater success.
A similar article explores the limiting nature of a safety net, and the dangerous ways in which subconscious seeking for this comfort can leave people complacent, lacking accountability and momentum. He cites key thinkers on the importance of a constant sense of urgency.
“Roland’s blog has been designed to give people a guided tour through the overwhelming amount of business literature and takes a cue from the 80/20 principle, picking out the most crucial insights that will have the greatest impact on readers,” a spokesperson for Roland Dickey, Jr. explained. “The blog is designed as a resource for up and coming and current business leaders who want to stay hungry, keep learning and discover the secrets behind one of Technomic’s fastest growing chains. The latest article describes how getting people to spend their birthdays and graduations with Dickey’s helps the brand build memories with guests, and keeps them coming back for more.”
