He served as regional vice president, director of training, and COO of companies such as Taco Bell, Long John Silver's, and Advantage. This phase of his career featured dramatic customer-service turnarounds, record-low employee turnover, and the development of dozens of leaders in the industry. He is especially proud of the number of women he helped advance into executive positions. At 37, Ken retired from the restaurant industry and founded an HR consulting firm.
