Podcasts about Apron

In this episode, Apron founder Bogdan Uzbekov explains how he built a 100+ person payments team, created a culture where people “do the work of their lives”, and why his 10-year vision includes building something in space. For UK bookkeepers, accountants and small business owners, this is a practical masterclass in leadership, team culture and modern business payments. The way you build your team and choose your technology stack directly affects cash flow, client experience and your capacity to grow. Bogdan shares what he learned in almost a decade in payments, how Apron was designed around accountants and bookkeepers, and the leadership principles he uses to scale quickly without losing quality. By the end of this episode, viewers will understand how high-growth fintech thinking can be applied inside a small UK bookkeeping practice. Hosted by Jo Wood and Zoe Whitman from The 6 Figure Bookkeeper, this Leadership Takeover Session connects real founder experience with the day-to-day reality of running a modern practice. Bogdan has spent nearly 10 years in payments, built Apron from concept to a fast-growing funded company, and now leads a team serving SMEs, accountants and bookkeepers across the UK. In this conversation, Jo and Zoe explore how Bogdan moved from a background in physics and research into startups and payments, why he chose the pace of entrepreneurship over a PhD, how Apron evolved from a simple frustration with broken business payments into a platform used by practices and their clients, what it really takes to grow a team from the first hire to over 100 people, how to design team culture deliberately so people can thrive, why he openly says “I love hustle” and how he balances that with family life, and his long-term ambition to “do something in space”. Bogdan is clear that great products are built by great teams. He explains why hiring is “really hard”, how Apron uses structured culture-led interviews, why values and learning speed matter more than technical skill alone, and why founders must eventually let go of control to allow new leaders to step forward. For UK bookkeepers, this offers a blueprint for moving from a solo practice to a small, high-impact firm. Apron is a business payments platform that helps small businesses pay suppliers and staff while keeping accountants and bookkeepers at the centre of the workflow. Bogdan Uzbekov is Apron's founder and currently leads a 100+ person team building payment infrastructure for UK SMEs. Platforms like Apron allow UK bookkeepers to centralise outgoing payments, improve visibility over cash flow, and introduce more structured client processes.

Franck Desplechin is a French-born chef turned luxury hotel food and beverage executive, with roots in Michelin-starred kitchens and brands like St. Regis and Auberge Resorts. After running iconic properties (including a wild Sedona chapter with his wife as co-leaders), he launched a nationwide task force and consulting practice and distilled his "chef mindset" leadership style into a book. Susan and Franck talk about building healthy, high-performing teams in high-pressure environments. What You'll Learn About: • Lessons from a 15-year-old apprentice about reliability, humility, and showing up that still matter in the C-suite • Navigating partnership when you and your spouse run the hotel together without killing each other (or the vibe) • How COVID, quarantine, and a pregnant partner forced a workaholic to completely rearrange his priorities • What the "chef mindset" really is and how to use adversity, rejection, and pressure as a leadership training ground • Spotting when your culture is out of balance between guest experience and employee experience • Rethinking "we have jobs because we have guests" and flipping it to a culture-first, people-first philosophy • What task force really looks like behind the scenes and how elite consultants show up differently than the average fill-in • Serving what the property needs vs pushing what you think they should fix as an external expert • Meetings that should absolutely die and how to spot the recurring time-wasters with zero impact • Simple daily rituals that build loyalty, like the 15-minute "hello tour" that makes your team feel seen • Where luxury F&B is headed next and why fewer, better outlets may beat "infinite options" for modern travelers *** Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Leadership in luxury F&B is shaped early, and built on discipline, humility, and constant learning. Franck traces his approach to leadership back to the foundations laid in Michelin-starred kitchens: showing up on time, staying coachable, being reliable, and remaining a lifelong student of hospitality. These habits, formed at age 15, still anchor his leadership today.  2. Task force success hinges on humility, flexibility, and meeting properties where they are. High-performing task force leaders don't walk in trying to fix everything. They focus on what the hotel truly needs, adapt to existing team culture, assess emotional dynamics, and provide continuity during leadership gaps. Ego and personal agenda have no place in effective interim leadership.  3. Luxury F&B's future is fewer outlets, sharper concepts, and deeper employee focus. Franck predicts a shift away from sprawling multi-outlet hotels toward tighter, more exceptional concepts, because guests increasingly value quality over variety and seek local experiences. He also argues that employee satisfaction should be measured and prioritized with the same rigor as guest satisfaction, because the guest experience depends on it.  Franck Desplechin on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/franck-desplechin/ Franck's Website https://www.cheffranck.com/ Other Episodes You May Like:  08: King Sheet Parachute with Justin Genzlinger https://www.topfloorpodcast.com/episode/08 174: Apron on a Fence with Mitch Prensky https://www.topfloorpodcast.com/episode/174 185: Squash Milk with Steve Fortunato https://www.topfloorpodcast.com/episode/185

Jase admits to a former unhealthy addiction that frustrated Missy to no end.

I don't think our kids really understand what an apron is. 

If you've ever wondered what happens when you mix hustle, humility, a bit of chaos, and a moment of pure stage-fright… this episode has you covered.This week, I sat down with Tom James, Managing Director of Bill's Restaurants, and a man whose career has taken him from glass collector to running iconic hospitality brands with a detour involving an incident with Jamie Oliver. Is that really his name?it's every bit as painful and glorious as it sounds.But beyond the comedy gold, Tom brings serious insight on leadership, culture, brand evolution, and the real work behind transforming a casual dining business in a turbulent market.In This EpisodeThe 16 year old glass collector who instantly fell in love with the buzz of hospitalityWhy hospitality should count as national serviceThe mentor who changed Tom's life and convinced him to skip his degree for a bar manager job at 20Becoming a General Manager at 24 and the power of someone seeing potential in you before you see it in yourselfForgetting everything you think you know when joining a new business (and why it matters)The Padstow Hotel summer that taught him more in four weeks than the entire year beforeWhy casual dining's old “playbooks” no longer work in a market that changes every two monthsHow Bill's rebuilt its identity, doubled EBITDA, and refocused the business around culture, data and genuine hospitalityWhy six out of ten experiences are basically an invitation to try somewhere elseStand-Out Quotes“You've always got to find a way. The failures… what are the learnings? How can I do it better?”“The nicest, kindest, most generous man I've met in hospitality is Bill — he's still our cultural benchmark.”“Six out of ten is saying: try somewhere else next time.”“The best loyalty comes from emotional connection — not discounting.”“I learned more in four weeks running that hotel than in the entire year before.”Why ListenThis episode is a masterclass in:Leadership without egoCulture-driven transformationBrand identity in a challenging marketThe messy, human, hilarious reality of hospitalityAnd above all, Tom's story is a reminder of why this industry is so special:it takes good people, stretches them, teaches them, shapes them — and occasionally gives them stories they'll never, ever live down.Including Jamie OliverShow PartnersA big shout out to the first of today's show partner, RotaCloud, the people management platform for shift-based teams.RotaCloud lets managers create and share rotas, record attendance, and manage annual leave in minutes — all from a single, web-based app.It makes work simple for your team, too, allowing them to check their rotas, request holiday, and even pick up extra shifts straight from their phones.Try RotaCloud's time-saving tools today by heading to https://rotacloud.com/philAlso, a massive shout out to our new show partners ApronRunning a hospitality business means juggling endless payments - from suppliers to staff - all while keeping cash flow in check.

In this episode, Michael, Joel and Stephen discuss the significant lag in technological advancements within the hospitality industry, particularly in back-office systems and data processing. Despite recent efforts made due to the pandemic to digitize front-of-house operations, the conversation highlights the need to improve operational aspects to enhance customer experiences. Issues such as repetitive WiFi logins and inefficient payment processes are mentioned. The discussion also emphasizes the importance of personalization and exceptional service in fostering customer loyalty, backed by personal anecdotes.

Memphis guitarist and Stax Recrds co-founder Steve Cropper died this week. Such a big influence on music - especially my favourite roots music of the sixties. Also paid tribute to reggae pioneer Jimmy Cliff, and Scottish songwriter / educator Adam McNaughton with a couple of songs towards the end of the show (including the condensed "Hamlet". The whole play in 4 minutes to the tune of The Mason's Apron!). Also a Get Well Soon to English troubadour Rory McLeaod, who is recovering from a heart attack. I included lots of new, mostly Canadian, music as well, and local concert previews, of course.

In this episode, Michael welcomes Marc Summers, a restauranteur with a bold and ambitious vision, to discuss his journey from a corporate finance career to creating a successful plant-based restaurant chain. Featuring stories of pivotal moments, including being inspired by a chef's table episode and the adrenaline of his first kitchen job, Marc outlines the organic development of his concept, the importance of testing and honing ideas through pop-ups, and the transition to opening brick-and-mortar sites. He shares his strategy for growing gracefully without compromising quality or culture, explains the intentional creation and application of core values, and highlights the excitement of future growth and new opportunities like catering. Marc also discusses the significance of transparency and respect in building a happy workplace, as evidenced by winning the Code People Award for the happiest place to work. Throughout, he reflects on the lessons learned and the importance of staying open-minded and resilient in a challenging industry.Connect with Marc:https://www.linkedin.com/in/marc-summers-561366210/https://www.bubala.co.uk/our-restaurantsConnect with the podcastJoin the Hospitality Mavericks newsletterTune in via your favourite podcast platform - here More episodes for you to check out here A big thank you to our epsiode sponsor Apron.The power tool for payments that helps hospitality operators save time, cut admin, and get back to doing what they love: looking after their guests and teams.Head to their website to sign up.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

https://thecommunists.org/2025/11/03/news/labour-party-patriotism-racist-imperialist/ While claiming to stand ‘against racism', Wes Streeting is engaged in a viciously racist campaign against a doctor who opposes genocide. The ‘Butcher's Apron' is the flag of a bloodthirsty and malevolent class of exploiters that continues to preside over the most horrific colonial as well as local crimes. Those who are appalled by the genocide in Gaza today are starting to realise that this is one in a long string of British imperialist atrocities, and that zionism itself is but a reflection of the extreme supremacism of the British ruling class.

In this episode, Michael interviews Trudi Parr, a hospitality professional with a vibrant journey that spans across media, tourism, and the evolving hotel industry. Trudi shares her unplanned yet fulfilling entry into hospitality, her roles from operations to sales, and her eventual focus on the people aspect of the business. Emphasizing the need for human-centric approaches in hospitality, she discusses the significance of treating employees well, fostering an inclusive environment, and the impact of nurturing talent from the ground up. With a keen interest in changing the perception of the hospitality industry, Trudi highlights the importance of internally built strong people practices and the challenges of recruiting and retaining talent post-COVID. Closely following the evolution of Mollie's—a motel diner concept—Trudi shares practical insights into their onboarding process, the importance of building relationships, and the excitement around new openings, particularly the upcoming launch in Manchester.Connect with Trudi:https://www.linkedin.com/in/trudi-parr/https://mollies.com/Connect with the podcastJoin the Hospitality Mavericks newsletterTune in via your favourite podcast platform - here More episodes for you to check out here A big thank you to our epsiode sponsor Apron.The power tool for payments that helps hospitality operators save time, cut admin, and get back to doing what they love: looking after their guests and teams.Head to their website to sign up.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

11-16-25 Have you put on your apron of service? Do you feel entitled to a "Thank You" from heaven for your good work? Pastor Lowe will lay out a clear message of how God sees your good and faithful service as it pertains to your worship from obedience rather than sacrifice. 

In this episode I sit down with Lis Long, founder of Apron, to explore how a forgotten patch of land in Buckingham Park became a thriving community garden – and how that small beginning has grown into an ambitious plan for a regenerative community farm in Lancing. Lis shares the story behind Apron, from the early pop-up craft sessions to building a garden from reclaimed materials during lockdown. We talk about food growing, heritage fruit trees, nature school, biodiversity, and the surprising power of small green spaces to rebuild confidence, connection and community. We also discuss Apron's next chapter – four acres of former equestrian land that Lis and her volunteers are turning into a space for wetland restoration, heritage craft, community food and practical climate action. The project is now in its crowdfunding phase, and Lis explains what support is needed to bring the site to life. If you're curious about community growing, regenerative practices or how local people can restore nature on their doorstep, this episode is a gentle, hopeful listen full of practical insight.

Pastor Chris preaches on Romans 9:1 - 6

In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, I sit down with Randy Roth, founder of the Leather Apron Club — a twice-monthly gathering of Ojai locals committed to keeping the art of conversation alive. Modeled after Benjamin Franklin's original “Junto” society of the 1730s, the Leather Apron Club has been meeting for the past eight years to exchange ideas on politics, environmental issues, foreign affairs, and cultural trends.What makes the club remarkable isn't just the breadth of topics, but the breadth of viewpoints. Members are chosen to reflect a wide spectrum of political and personal perspectives, and the goal isn't persuasion — it's understanding. As Roth explains, the Leather Apron Club is about creating a space where differences can be heard respectfully, where ideas can be tested, sharpened, and sometimes even transformed in the spirit of camaraderie and friendship.The club also shares recommendations for books, films, articles, and other cultural touchstones, weaving together a community of curiosity and respectful debate. We did not talk about fly-tying knots, Amelia Earhart or molybdenum mining processes.In an age where shouting matches often replace dialogue, Randy Roth's Leather Apron Club stands as a local model for how civil discourse can flourish — and why it matters now more than ever.

A chef sets out to reinvent the humble apron, growing it to a multi-million-dollar company while still working in restaurants at night.

It is Reformation Sunday and also week 5 of our series, How to Bless Your Neighbor. Our mission is to Love God, Love Others, with No Limits, and we do that by being a blessing to the people God has put in our lives. This week, we dive into the first 'S' in our B.L.E.S.S. acronym: Serve. We are going to offer a challenge for us all to embrace a radical paradigm shift—a move from a crown to an apron—just as Jesus demonstrated when he washed his disciples' feet. Jesus, the King of Kings, lowered himself to the lowest act of service, teaching us that to be great, we must first serve. This isn't just about kind gestures; it's about a total shift in how we approach our spouse, co-workers, and community. We also take a moment to discuss the vital regional ministry of Heartfelt Radio and the power of supporting Christian outreach beyond our local walls. Are you ready to stop hoping people find their way back to God and start helping? Discover the revolutionary power of service! Worship Notes on YouVersion http://bible.com/events/49511719

Because of some weird tech issues, the last part of Salaam's incredible interview got cut off when uploading! But that's OK, because it is allowing me to showcase her poem in it's entirety here in it's own separate little episode. It is breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly masterful. And as well, it is an incredible gift, to all of us! To buy her book "The Other Revival, Poems & Reckonings," click here!

OK...I still have to pinch myself...because my guest this week was so much medicine for my heart, for my soul, and words escape me as to how to introduce her and her loveliness. Which is ironic, because Salaam Green is absolutely full of words as Birmingham, Alabama's Inaugural Poet Laureate. She is creating beauty every step she takes, reconciling the land and the soul so that each can speak to the other; and giving voice to those long forgotten. Salaam Green is, quite simply, a world-builder, and she's bringing us along for the ride! (thank goodness). For the longer form interview this week, please do not miss Salaam reading one of her poems, because I think/know it will change your life! To read up on Salaam and her potent work, click here for her website! To purchase her groundbreaking book, "The Other Revival, Poems & Reckonings," click here. It's not often that one gets introduced to someone who is wielding such powerful magic, such powerful beauty, so I know that I am going to come back again and again to this episode when days are too hard for my heart. PLEASE REMEMBER TO RATE AND REVIEW THE PODCAST WHEREVER YOU LISTEN. IT WARMS THE BARREN COCKLES OF MY HEART! Your bit of beauty is this: an introduction to Salaam, from the City of Birmingham! Take a gander and meet Salaam in real life (well, sorta real life!) on YouTube, and witness her grace in action!
