Jackie and Kim have worked together, and they are also friends. Listen as they discuss Kim’s most recent book, Recruit, Retain & Reimagine Today’s Foodservice Workforce. The foodservice industry was hit hard by the pandemic. Kim’s book explores the challenges of post covid transformation, primarily linked to staffing and attracting Next Gen talent…business issues that many companies and industries are facing. Kim’s book was, in part, an effort to give back to an industry that has played such a large part of her career success. Along with the book, comes the sage wisdom to trust the process of transformation. During Kim’s 20+ years in foodservice, she was fortunate to have a number of mentors, and she reminds us of the importance of building a community and network to sustain a successful career. Everyone can be a mentor; just set the intention to do so.
