 This week, our Gang of 3 continues the discussion of many of the great points made by Pentallect’s Bob Goldin in our previous episode. No surprise that Bob would be on-point on just about every issue, but there were a few points where our Gang took a bit of an issue with the well-known consultant.
Again, big props to Bob Goldin for stopping by last episode. We look forward to him returning to discuss the whole area of bars and cocktail lounges as we continue our recovery journey in the world of hospitality.
