According to an August 2022 article by McKinsey & Company, "…leadership is not something people are born with—it is a skill you can learn. At the core are mindsets, which are expressed through observable behaviors, which then lead to measurable outcomes."1 That is why the Educational Advisory Board for the Food Safety Summit has chosen to offer food safety leadership skills training on the Summit program.
For the past couple of years, food safety leadership has been included as a session on the educational program for BNP Media and Food Safety Magazine's annual Food Safety Summit. The Food Safety Summit recognizes how important it is to continuously invest in the development of future leaders in food safety by providing opportunities for experienced leaders to share their expertise and be accessible.
