Effective Communication Between the Front and Back of House is Key
A quite typical problem is a lack of communication and animosity between the back-of-house
and front-of-house. Often, when things go wrong during busy periods, the FOH blames the
BOH, and vice versa.
Usually, this comes down to a break-down in the lines of communication.
Many event companies use an expeditor to help with this problem. An expeditor is a liaison
between the BOH and FOH and works to make sure the event runs smoothly. In simpler term,
a floor manager. The floor manager will handle the flow of the event, and conduct briefings
prior to start of event including the BOH and FOH leaders, to ensure that the communication
line is clear.
