Brinker International’s Post

Happy Fourth of July from our team! Proudly celebrating our spirit of independence in red, white and blue. Wishing everyone a safe and fun-filled Independence Day🎆 #FourthofJuly #IndependenceDay

In F’24, Chili's EMERGE, a program for recently promoted Managers, hosted 626 participants! With a 92.18% retention rate, EMERGE is proving to be a game-changer for new Managers, empowering them to lead their restaurants with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. EMERGE’s success is a testament to the teamwork and dedication of numerous Restaurant Support Center Team Members. The combined efforts of facilitators, coordinators, Executive Leadership Team members, presenters, tour guides, and department representatives make EMERGE a cornerstone of Chili’s commitment to excellence and innovation. #development #empoweredleadership #casualdining

BrinkerHeads celebrated the start of the new fiscal year with a free food truck lunch at the Restaurant Support Center! 🚚🎉🍔🌮 Delicious treats, great company and fantastic team bonding—big thanks to the amazing food trucks for making it special.

Today, we say see you later to our CFO of seven years, Joe Taylor, as he embarks on his next journey—retirement! Joe's leadership has been instrumental in helping to steer our business and most importantly, he leaves having made a lasting impact on thousands of BrinkerHeads, ChiliHeads and Maggiano's Little Italy Teammates. Joe, thank you for playing restaurant with us for the last (almost) 25 years. We hope your retirement is filled with endless rounds of golf and frequent enjoyment of a Chili's Old Fashioned (or two). 🎉

Happy #PrideMonth!🏳️🌈 To celebrate, our DEI team hosted an impactful Active Allyship Training and non-profit tradeshow. Aaron White, Chief People Officer, opened the event, followed by James Butler, Chief Supply Chain Officer and Executive Leadership Team Champion for the LGBTQ+ and Allies Community of Interest, who emphasized the importance of active allyship. Lisa Howe, Vice President of Membership and Programs at the North Texas LGBT Chamber of Commerce, shared compelling stories about the challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community in the workplace. #activeallyship #lgbtqcommunity #lovewins

Last week, BrinkerHeads gathered at our Olympics-themed Restaurant Support Center (RSC) Meeting to celebrate an incredible, record-breaking fiscal year! We left feeling inspired and ready to strive for gold again in F'25 🥇 The celebration continued into the afternoon with our annual Officer Cookout, where our leaders personally grilled burgers and hotdogs to show appreciation for our RSC Team Members' unwavering "work hard, play hard" spirit. Here's to another year of excellence and teamwork!

On Friday, June 14, BrinkerHeads came together for a special day of service and celebration at Bonton Farms Extension Farm, cleaning flower and vegetable beds, feeding the goats and chickens, and making a meaningful impact in the community. Together, we completed almost 100 hours of service and celebrated freedom and empowerment, reflecting the spirit of #Juneteenth.

Did someone say #NationalBurgerDay?🍔 Chili's knows a thing or two about burgers (*cough* Big Smasher *cough*), so the Culinary team whipped up some tasty bites last week to celebrate the holiday with BrinkerHeads at the Restaurant Support Center!

Earlier this year, Brinker auctioned off two chef experiences at the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Evening Under the Stars fundraiser, raising $16,000 for the children of St. Jude! Our Chili's and Maggiano's Little Italy culinary teams hosted the chef experiences, featuring a custom dinner course with wine pairings, at our Restaurant Support Center. Shoutout to our Team Members who went above and beyond for our special Guests in the spirit of giving back! 👨🍳⭐ https://lnkd.in/dKtTFHu7
