Now in our fourth year at Cooks Camp, go2HR returns with Leadership that Sticks — a practical and relatable workshop session for culinary and food and beverage professionals who want to grow their leadership skills, not just manage schedules.
In this 45-minute campfire-style talk, we’ll explore how to:
• Navigate tricky team dynamics
• Give meaningful feedback
• Lead with confidence without formal training
Hear real stories from real kitchens. Get a sneak peek at a new way to keep building your leadership toolkit — including a flexible online course and small-group coaching led by HR experts who understand the industry.
