DALLAS, June 27,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Women in a wide range of roles
across all segments of the foodservice industry will explore and
expand their leadership capabilities, with impactful sessions on
how to take risks and how to share your unique value. These one-day
workshops will also provide a safe community for women to build
connections with peers and mentors.
More than ten years ago, WFF launched its Leadership Development
Workshops (LDWs) that have proven to be valuable in helping women
discover new tools to advance their careers. LDWs provide
participants with an exceptional vehicle for accelerating learning
through robust professional development and networking delivered
with minimal time away from work and family. This one-day immersive
experience includes two professional development sessions focused
on core leadership competencies, a leadership exchange panel with
industry executives sharing their insights and coordinated
networking opportunities during breakfast and lunch for in-person
attendees. Individuals can also attend virtually, and all
participants will enjoy on-demand access to content after the
workshops.
"Our LDWs are popular with both women building their careers in
the foodservice industry and the employers who rely on their
growing talent because they deliver high impact and value in a
concentrated time," explains WFF President & CEO Therese Gearhart. "Expert speakers and a highly
interactive agenda keep participants learning, growing and
connecting throughout this powerful one-day experience."
Workshop Topics
- Your Superpower Revealed: Clarify, Amplify & Share Your
Unique Value
When you understand your greatest strengths,
you are empowered to use them to add maximum value and showcase
your contributions in ways that get you noticed. With more than two
decades of experience in learning and development and human
resources, Courtney Ramsey will
guide participants in completing a Superpower Discovery, clarifying
their unique value, and developing strategies to intentionally
leverage their abilities to increase impact and accelerate
progress.
- Leveling-up your Confidence to Lead
According to
research, courage is an essential leadership quality. But, when
emerging leaders consider rejection, humiliation or failure as
potential outcomes, they can find it difficult to act with courage.
The founder of The Can-Do Company and author of A Cool Girl's
Guide To Courage, Candace Doby,
will guide participants on how to leverage personal courage to
speak up, take more risks and own their brilliance at work.
