Portofino
is an unassuming restaurant
located at 13a Customs street
West Auckland. From the street
you can see the beautiful
patio that offers the most
enjoyable outdoor seating
in town.The patio spills into
a delightful dining room with
vaulted ceilings, hardwood
floors and bright, energetic
artwork.The restaurant is
comfortable and casual, and
is a neighborhood favorite
now in its eighth year.
The menu changes seasonally,
but favorites always seem
to remain.An Italian influence
is shown throughout the menu,
particularly with traditional
simple pasta’s,lasagna,pizza’s.
Portofino's guiding principles
were developed in 1980 by
team members from all levels
of the organization. These
principles are the philosophical
touchstone for all the Portofino
team members and can be expressed
in two thoughts:
Portofino Principles:
1. We are committed to open
and honest communication,
mutual respect and strong
teamwork.
2. We are clear on each individual’s
role, accountabilities and
key performance measures.
3. We do not compromise standards
in selection, training and
job performance.
• We will only hire
people with the skills and
potential to succeed.
• People only advance
from training when they have
demonstrated the required
competencies.
• Peer interviewing
helps us select the right
people for the team.
4. In the process of making
a change, we seek the opinions
of those closest to the action,
listen and value their ideas.
5. Everyone should expect
regular, on-going training
opportunities to sharpen and
advance their skills.
6. When accountabilities are
not being met, we act quickly.
• Feedback
• Re-training/Redirection
• Assess results with
appropriate consequences
7.We will achieve the results
and share our successes.
