Subject: Program Expansion Concerns
Good afternoon, Seydou,
Hope you’re doing well.
It was a pleasure to meet with you yesterday and receive your input with regard to an
expanded rollout. Your insight and contributions have been invaluable to the project thus far.
As stated in our last meeting, I am still concerned about expanding the rollout past the bar
sections of our restaurants. Omar has requested that we expand the rollout to include all
dining sections in the Downtown & North locations, but I’m afraid this would be out of scope
from our original intention. In my experience handling projects like this, an incremental
approach affords a more limited risk and allows staff to problem solve with more limited
consequences. As you said in our meeting, a gradual scale-up of kitchen operations will be
better equipped to meet the demands of our customers.
At the end of the day, customer satisfaction drives our revenue. I believe you and I share a
similar concern that an expansive rollout will have consequences that will negatively impact
our customer satisfaction. Would you feel comfortable sharing a list of your biggest rollout
expansion concerns with me, so that I may meet with Osmar & Deanna to discuss them
further?
Moving forward, I’d like to be able to come to a consensus with our team and ensure buy-in
from Omar and Deanna that a gradual approach will yield the best results for long-term
revenue growth. I am hoping that by showing a united front, we would be more convincing to
Omar & Deanna to share this mindset.
Warm Regards,
Peta,

approach affords a more limited risk and allows staff to problem solve with more limited

in orders without hiring additional personnel immediately.
