Mark Milecki is a prime example of working one's way up the ranks: from bus boy to top-level General Manager in extraordinary fashion at The Cheesecake Factory. Along his journey, he was awarded Expeditor of the Year, and has played a vital role in each of his restaurants' successes.

On a personal note, he was my boss for about a year. And I learned more about leadership in that year of my life than the other 24 combined. He taught me about taking care of those who take care of you, sacrificing short-term comfort for long-term prosperity, and how to be both a general and a soldier.
