Canlis

In an industry that sucks the life out of people, how does a company ensure that they aren’t exploiting employees?
Canlis is the 67-year-old, James Beard Award-winning restaurant in Seattle that is pushing the envelope when it comes to employee development.  By carefully selecting those whose core identity aligns with their involvement in the company, and then nurturing the process of self-discovery and development, Canlis has forged a world-class fine-dining experience.
