Scaling Leadership: 10 Proven strategies to find, hire, develop & engage NextGen teams and leaders
The last two years have compressed issues that would have taken a decade to play out, not least in relation to staffing, training and leadership. Hospitality urgently needs a new framework to scale high quality leaders to ensure their brands and businesses can return to growth.
“When the meaning of work changes, the meaning of leadership also changes.”
The workplace rules of engagement have fundamentally changed and the pressures on frontline leaders have never been more challenging. Employees want a healthy, modern, flexible way of working and those companies who listen, respond and act will reap the benefits in the competition for both talent and customers.
This workshop will detail and share the best demonstrated practices of the foodservice, hospitality and retail companies in North America and the UK who successfully navigated the pandemic, assessed their leadership strategies, and asked themselves "How do we make it better, and not just different?"
