Today on Cats at Night: Executive Director of NYC Hospitality Alliance - Andrew Rigie joined the show.

In this episode, Kate and Rachel are joined by Andrew Rigie, Executive Director at the New York City Hospitality Alliance. Rigie comes from years of experience in the hospitality industry and launched the NYC Hospitality Alliance in 2012 to deliver education, services, and representation to the NYC restaurant and nightlife scene in government and media. Throughout the pandemic, Rigie has been a major advocate for all types of policies to support the hospitality industry through the COVID-19 crisis: from city legislation to suspend personal liability on restaurant leases to capping third-party delivery fees, enforcing the now permanent Open Restaurants program to allow outdoor seating on the city sidewalks outside a restaurant, and most recently the Restaurant Relief Fund, which is included in the 1.9 trillion dollar American Rescue Plan signed by President Biden on March 11, 2021. The Restaurant Relief Fund gives 28.6 billion dollars worth of grant money to restaurants in need and is a piece of legislation heavily backed by New York Senator Schumer, whom Rigie closely supported. Rigie discusses all of these experiences in the episode, along with what more needs to happen to get restaurants completely back on their feet, other pre-pandemic challenges in the hospitality industry that now should be addressed, and the overall power of the hospitality community.

Despite being worlds apart, guest Andrew Rigie, Executive Director at NYC Hospitality Alliance, spent some time discussing the similarities between the restaurant biz and the healthcare world. Joined by guest co-host Kaycee Kalpin, the Vice President of Strategic Marketing at Premier Inc, the trio talked about the increasing need for PPE, the recent hospitality resurgence, and where the two industries converge.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR NYC HOSPITALITY ALLIANCE: Cuomo shutting down restaurants

After a nearly 7-month hiatus, I am happy to have on as my first guest back on Real Estate REality Check someone who I consider to be the equivalent of the Pulp Fiction character Winston Wolf when it comes to making a difference for the restaurant industry that has been, in the words of Mick Jagger, absolutely “SHATTERED” by the impact of COVID-19. Even if you have been doing your best impression of “The Bubble Boy” character from Seinfeld, Andrew Rigie, the Executive Director of the New York City Hospitality Alliance, has been like Elvis Presley ... you know, as in EVERYWHERE, as he goes about channeling Winston Wolf’s mantra of “I solve problems” for the 100’s of thousands of NYC restaurant workers that have been devastated by the pandemic. Andrew knows that without food and beverage coming back to being an integral part of our lives and the fabric that makes NYC so great, the road to recovery is going to be a long and treacherous one.

Andrew Rigie, Executive Director at New York City Hospitality Alliance talks about how they want to help your business to be successful in a highly competitive and regulated industry, especially with the Cares Act.

We here we are in the thick of the Corona-tastrophe.  It is having far reaching implications and consequences for the Hospitality industry. We have an interview with Andrew Rigie, Executive Director of the New York City Hospitality Alliance.  He’s also Chair of New York City’s Office of Nightlife Advisory Board. THIS EPISODE AND RELATED WEBSITE MATERIAL IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES AND NOT INTENDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING MEDICAL or LEGAL ADVICE BY THE BARTENDER JOURNEY PODCAST TEAM. PLEASE READ OUR FULL DISCLAIMER HERE,   The interview with Mr. Rigie  was recorded prior to the March 15th announcement of Mayor Di Blasio's executive order limiting restaurants, bars, and cafes to food take out and delivery; nightclubs, movie theaters, small theater houses, and concert venues must close effective Tuesday, March 17th.  The NYC executive order was then superseded by NY State Governor Andrew Cuomo’s executive order the following day - March 16, 2020 - that all bars and restaurants in the entire state must go to take out & delivery only.  Interestingly though here in NY State, where to-go alcoholic drinks were a definite no-no for establishments like bars and restaurants with an on-premise license, it seems that it will now be allowed during the Corona-tastrophe.  So here in NY anyway we can sell to-go alcoholic beverages.    The NYC Hospitality Alliance Group continues to remain a resource for our industry here in NYC - you can visit their site: the thenycalliance.org for the latest updates.

Andrew Rigie is the Executive Director of the New York City Hospitality Alliance where he works with NYC restaurant owners to create favorable conditions for restaurants to thrive in the five boroughs.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com Why would you ever want to come up with a bad idea? Because, just maybe, a good idea is hiding inside! Bad2Good is a highly effective (and fun!) problem-solving technique that is perfect when you're tackling an especially tough, serious challenge. If you or your team has ever said to yourselves, “We just can’t come up with any good ideas,” then Bad2Good is the technique you'll want to use. Because when you can’t come up with good ideas – why not come up with bad ones? And MAKE them good! In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer explain Bad2Good, and provide detailed instructions for just how to do it the next time you need some good ideas!

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com If you’ve participated in group brainstorming sessions, you’ve probably had the experience of one or two people controlling all the conversation – while others in the room just sit and say nothing. We call those people the “silent thinkers,” and BrainWriting is a group problem-solving technique specifically designed to help “level the playing field,” so everybody in the session has an equal opportunity to share ideas and contribute to finding a solution. BrainWriting is simple, but extremely effective. And best of all, it’s done in silence. No conversation, no arguments, no debates. Just positive collaboration that leads to bigger, better, more innovative ideas! In this video, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer introduce BrainWriting and provide detailed instructions for how to do it the next time you have to generate ideas with your team. Complete instructions for BrainWriting and 19 other problem-solving techniques are included in our book, SmartStorming: The Game-Changing Process for Generating Bigger, Better Ideas - available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and through our website at https://www.SmartStorming.com/book.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com When it’s time to generate fresh, new, innovative ideas for solving a problem or capitalizing on an opportunity, what’s the best way to go about it?  Free association (just randomly “thinking up” ideas) is a valid approach, but it’s not always the most effective. In fact, there are countless problem-solving techniques that are designed to help you or your team think in a variety of different directions – and open your mind to new, unexpected possibilities. One of our favorite techniques is called “Idea Sprinting,” a fast-paced, beat-the-clock technique that helps free your mind, eliminate self-consciousness and judgment, and get lots of “idea starters” on the table very quickly. In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer introduce Idea Sprinting, and provide detailed instructions for just how to do it the next time you have to generate ideas.  Complete instructions for Idea Sprinting and 19 other problem-solving techniques are included in our book, SmartStorming: The Game-Changing Process for Generating Bigger, Better Ideas - available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and through our website at https://www.SmartStorming.com/book.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com When you encounter a new challenge or a fresh opportunity, what's the first thing you do? You probably ask yourself, "How am I going to tackle this?" In other words, you ask yourself a question. Creative problem-solving is, at its essence, the art of asking great questions. The more thought-provoking the questions you ask, the more insightful or imaginative the answers will be. Innovative thinking - the kind that solves challenges and creates game-changing products, services, and processes - is often sparked by simple, but powerful questions that begin with the words "What if…?" In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer discuss just why questions are so important, and reveal how asking the right question can direct your team's thinking in new, more innovative directions. s challenges and creates gam

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com When trying to think more innovatively while solving a problem or capitalizing on an opportunity, you might believe your mind either works - or it doesn't. But in fact, when generating ideas, your mind (and the minds of those you're collaborating with) actually works in two very different and distinct ways: it can diverge outward, in a broad, 360-degree, blue sky exploration of ideas; or it can converge inward, narrowing focus in an effort to judge and select ideas. Learning to identify and leverage these two thinking styles is key to innovative problem-solving success! In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer discuss the differences between divergent and convergent thinking, and how to use each most effectively.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com Wait, doesn't everybody think more innovatively today? If so, then why do we still hear that old cliché, “We have to think outside the box!” Just what IS the box we have to think outside of? How can we escape it whenever we need to? And who put that box there anyway? Why do so often hear laments like “We just keep recycling the same old ideas,” “We’ve tried everything before,” “We don’t have the money we need” or “The boss/our customers will never go for that!” In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer reveal just what that big bad box actually is, and a simple technique to help you break free of its innovation-squashing restraints.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com Why is it sometimes so hard to come up with a good idea - often, just when we need it most? What are the most common impediments to innovative thinking? Do we just lack the necessary talent or skill? Do we really have to wait for the right moment, when inspiration strikes? In fact, we all have the ability to come up with fresh, innovative ideas, anywhere, at any time. But unfortunately, there are a number of things that can get in the way. The question is, what can we do about it? In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer talk about those things that make it difficult, if not impossible, to think innovatively.

To learn more visit https://SmartStorming.com Most people don't really like rules. Just telling someone to "follow the rules" can be a turnoff. After all, don't rules really mean that you can't do whatever you want? But establishing some rules for better idea generation really makes a lot of sense! Rules help define what types of interactions are productive and acceptable, and what types are not. And in an idea generation session - whether we're working with others or even by ourselves - being productive is essential. In this episode, SmartStorming partners Mitchell Rigie and Keith Harmeyer explore the value of rules in idea generation, and reveal some of the most important ones to follow
