Grow Your Band By Creating A Culinary Culture with Greg Gorgone Co-Founder at Pineapple Academy

Greg Gorgone, Co-Founder & COO at Pineapple Academy: https://pineappleacademy.com/
Connect with Greg on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/greggorgone/
A memorable, instagramable dining experience begins with great food and hospitality. Brands with a culinary culture can win the war for talent and retain those diamonds in the rough creating a better atmosphere and guest experience. Churn-and-burn foodservice providers stuck in a transactional and reactionary model struggle to retain talent and elevate frontline workers. Greg grew up in foodservice as a frontline worker and feels blessed to have been nurtured up the food chain. Pineapple Academy transforms brands into a culinary culture.

Brand Expansion Strategies And The Best Tasting Pit BBQ On The Planet! with Cim Yoder, SVP Brookwood Farms BBQ

Colin "Cim" Yoder Senior Vice President - Foodservice at Brookwood Farms BBQ: https://brookwoodfarms.com/
Connect with Cim on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cimyoder/
Growing a food business 'back in the day' was easier - but don't misunderstand me. There is nothing easy in the world of food. It's always been hard work, but it was "easier" to get product samples into mouths. You have to have a great-tasting product - that goes without saying. But how do you scale today when it is harder to get in front of decision-makers. Cim explains with his Southern charm how he and his team built and scaled their food brand. Can this be replicated? You decide.

Connect with Hyrum on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hyrumegbert/
Restaurants are closing, businesses are cutting hours of operation, drive-through lines are getting longer. You don’t need captain obvious to tell you we have a staffing problem. No doubt as you read this you have an idea as to WHY there is a labor shortage. I tend to agree with Hyrum’s theory and if he is right, businesses need a completely different modis operandi to change this trend. So you’re a young executive and you just landed your first VP job. On day one you notice that your immediate staff is nearly twice your age and it's your job to lead them. Let's consult the “Book of Hyrum” to get them to buy into the changes. Hyrum shares his wisdom on these topics today and more:
The FPL culture and mission
Consumer trends in food
How to address the labor shortage
