Scott Cluthe LIVE tonight with Scott Barnett, founding CEO of the
Bubba Gump Shrimp Company restaurants and authjor of the new book,
Gumption. Call in LIVE: 347-308-8478 Written in a cinematic style,
this book is about the creation, growth, and sale of the Bubba Gump
Shrimp Company. The concept began when Paramount Pictures reached
out to see if there was interest in creating a restaurant based on
the movie Forrest Gump. It is also the personal story of the
author's growth as a CEO and creator of restaurant concepts. A host
of situations are described such as restaurant concept creation,
high stakes boardroom confrontations, and escaping corrupt
officials in foreign lands. The narrative is partly an unvarnished
peak behind the everyday scenes of restaurants, movie studios, and
Wall Street. There is also an almost step-by-step recounting of how
the Bubba Gump concept and others were created and operated.
Lessons can be learned on unorthodox methods used in moving from
traditional approaches to untried ways of doing business. Scott
Barnett is the founding CEO of the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company
restaurants. He has given talks on service, management techniques,
leadership, and financial performance metrics. He has actively
consulted with a number of restaurant companies worldwide, and he
is a recognized expert on transactions, branding, concept
development, and overall operations. He lives in Solana Beach,
California.
