Do you want to Elevate your professional and personal growth?

Chick-fil-A Summerville and Chick-fil-A Goose Creek's Leadership Development Program, Elevate, evolved from Operator Chris Walker's passion for developing leaders and guiding people to get "where they want to go in life." A teacher at heart with nearly 25 years of entrepreneurial success, Chris has honed the art of building leaders and equipping them with sharpened acumen for positive influence, innovation, and balanced business practices.

By empowering leaders and allowing them to oversee and "own" dynamic business experiences, they are able to craft personalized, unique stories of real responsibility. Likened to a learning laboratory, this $24 million restaurant organization is the perfect setting to accelerate growth, solve real-world leadership challenges, and create transferable skills for any industry. This proven apprenticeship model has resulted in the launch of eight Chick-fil-A Franchisees (Owner/Operators), four Chick-fil-A Corporate Staff members, and countless entrepreneurial/advanced career opportunities beyond our brand.

Chick-fil-A Summerville and Chick-fil-A Goose Creek have strategically worked to formalize this replicable developmental process at all levels of the organization. Inspired by Chris fulfilling a lifetime dream of becoming a pilot, the name of our Leadership Development Program, Elevate, allows talented and driven leaders to chart a path for flying at a higher altitude—professionally and personally.
