NRN editors discuss their takeaways from the Women’s Foodservice Forum’s leadership conference

This week on a special Women’s Foodservice Forum-themed edition of the Extra Serving podcast, a production of Nation’s Restaurant News, NRN editors Holly Petre, Leigh Anne Zinsmeister, and Sam Oches discussed their key takeaways from the WFF leadership conference held last week in Dallas.

A few of those takeaways include an increased focus on mental health and self-care, the importance and celebration of the return of networking, and how to grow talent from within to wind up with more female representation in the C-suite. 

The three editors attended the conference and recorded several podcasts at the NRN podcast lounge. Stay tuned in the upcoming weeks for even more WFF content. This week on the pod, hear from Dr. James Pogue on what men can do to increase gender equity, CEO of WFF Therese Gearhart on what the conference means to her, and Yum Brands chief operating officer and chief people officer Tracy Skeans on what inspires her.
