In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam and managing editor Leigh Anne Zinsmeister sit down at the Women’s Foodservice Forum’s Leadership Conference with two WFF board members and influential industry executives: Panera COO Debbie Roberts & Auntie Anne’s CBO Alisa Gmelich. They discuss their careers, the power of networking, their advice for emerging leaders across the restaurant space and the work that still needs to be done to create a more diverse, equitable and inclusive industry.

 

In this conversation, you’ll find out why: 

• You shouldn’t underestimate the power of networking
• Self-care is just as important for your professional life as it is your personal 
• You should be cultivating future leaders from inside your organization
