Famous for their holistic wellness and leisure offerings, Lenkerhof is proud of the exclusive culinary experiences offered at their restaurants Spettacolo (17 Gault Millau points) and Restaurant Oh de vie - by Lenkerhof (15 Gault Millau points). Starting in 2023, Lenkerhof adopted Global Swiss Learning's in-house culinary education program, with employees trained both online and on-site at their hotel and restaurant.
They immediately noticed the benefits in their team: Flexible scheduling reduced stress, there was no need for the employees to travel to another location for training and the practical sessions led by their head chef ensured there was a balance of online and hands-on learning.
Indeed, their head chef Stephan L. noted the improvement in their employee Flavio’s work output and attitude:
"It's easy to see our employee's skills have improved, that they've developed professionally, that they're having more fun at work. It's overwhelmingly positive."
That investing in their team's growth remains a top priority at Lenkerhof is clear as they continue the training. We visited Stephan and his team in Lenk to talk with them firsthand about their experiences. Watch the video below to learn more about the impact the education has had on their kitchen team.
