#13 – LEAD DOMINO podcast – Jimmy Madden
(CLICK IMAGE ABOVE TO LISTEN)
On today’s episode we host Jimmy Madden. Jimmy is a Hicksville native and attended Kellenberg Memorial HS and then NYIT as a member of the lacrosse teams. To stay close to the game, he coached at Friends Academy, LIU Post and most recently Oyster Bay HS. Currently, Jimmy is a co-owner of Peppercorns Restaurant & Catering in Hicksville.
Our conversation touches on a lot of the similarities between coaching sports and running a restaurant. As we identify the common threads of each industry we get a glimpse at how Jimmy approaches the good, the bad and the ugly of running a restaurant. Along with all of this, we recorded during the height of the Covid-19 virus quarantine and got a first hand account of one of the hardest hit industries during this time. Jimmy shares great insights from his experiences; how he decides on his “lineup” for the night and why being approachable is important.
