Morning Large Interest Session Schedule

9:45-11 am

Ken Wasco, Motivator, Marketing Specialist, Educator and Author. Helping achieve the "People Connection".

Program: "Foodservice, the Future", is based upon recent research into change management, motivation, empowerment, consumer dynamics, social networking and food preferences. This is an interactive experience in which participants will learn the importance of embracing rather than resisting the natural flow of change dynamics. The first resistance to break through is the continual belief that food is the most important part of the dining experience.
