How I Learned To Tame My Temper - And Become A Better Boss
Inc.|July - August 2019

Samin Nosrat has always been “good with people”—when she’s not managing them.

She’s starting a new company, to produce future TV projects; this time, she’s determined to be a better leader.

How I Learned To Tame My Temper - And Become A Better Boss

In 2004, I started working at this restaurant in Berkeley, California— Eccolo, which was founded and run by my mentor, Chris Lee. I came to run the kitchen, and that was my first managerial role.

There was constant tension with the investors. Our values were fundamentally misaligned. That’s fine when things are successful, but when there are challenges, it really gets difficult. They didn’t care that we wanted to buy the best organic eggs, or attempt to pay a living wage.
