The quality of an experience makes a huge impact on our perceptions and the choices we make going forward. Both personally and professionally, the experiences that stick with us are the ones that transcend our expectations, forcing us to try new things or reconsider preconceived notions.

Lauren Beckwith, Program Manager for ISS Guckenheimer, joins the Served by SHFM (Society for Hospitality and Foodservice Management) podcast to talk about her career path and why it’s important to chase new opportunities, take on new challenges, and create great experiences for others.

 

“The culture makes all the difference. Having leaders in a place where they see differences in people and see how that makes the workplace better, it drew me in. Historically, the foodservice and hospitality industries have felt like they were a little bit behind. The work we’re doing now to build a more inclusive and equitable culture is going to rocket us into the future.”
