Attendance is Free... to anyone in, or supporting, the foodservice industry and want to "elevate" themselves in their career.
In today’s challenging business environment, changes happen fast, and you’ll be left behind if you think it’s “business as usual.”
Step up to the real-life situations that challenge us all; make plans to attend one of the 20+ Regional Connect events scheduled this fall all across the country and Canada, and discuss with local foodservice leaders how “business is done.”
Education, Networking, Best Practices for Emerging Leaders
Regional Connects offer unparalleled opportunities to build strong regional networks though a unique mix of socialization and programming.
Exclusive opportunity to learn and network with industry peers:
- Understand the WFF Core Leadership Competency, “Developing Others”: a skill that’s critical for those who supervise teams, lead committees and for those who want to learn these practices
- Discover what it takes to lead diverse groups of people, processes and projects
- Network; develop and strengthen relationships with local colleagues
- Return to the office armed with a wealth of new ideas and connections you can’t find anywhere else
- Plus, register for valuable door prizes, including a WFF membership and an Annual Leadership Development Conference registration, valued at $1,450.
Who Should Attend:
Emerging Leaders: entry-level and mid-level management (administrators and managers) who supervise or aspire to lead team initiatives. These staff members want to learn from peers to build a solid foundation and strong network to prepare for their next career move.
Prepare for the event:
As a membership benefit, the Leadership Competency Assessment tool is available at no charge. Take the assessment before you attend Regional Connect to see where you fall on the competency scale of abilities.
