#RealTalk Dialogue Series | Women's History Month: Leading from the Front 03.29.2022

Credits: None available.

1 Clock Hour | Domain E: Human Resources

#RealTalk is BACK! Come engage in deep-dive conversations around the DEI topics that matter most today. This month's focus will be in recognition of Women's History Month.

The hospitality industry has an 85% representation of women overall in its workforce, however, the number of women in leadership roles is severely disproportionate by comparison.

During this session, you will...

  • Analyze ways in which societal institutions and power structures impact women’s leadership opportunities and success.
  • Be able to identify meaningful intersections between gender and other social and cultural identities.
  • Be able to identify equity strategies that create an inclusive environment building opportunities for more women in leadership.

Sustainable F&B: Your Guide to Eco-Friendly Meals - Whitepaper Debrief 03.22.2022

Credits: None available.

1 Clock Hour | Domain G: Meeting or Event Design

Food impacts the environment through its cultivation, transportation, distribution, consumption and disposal—which means the choices you make for your event meal functions can have outsized consequences locally, regionally and even globally. The choices your vendors make can have positive or negative effects on ecosystems, greenhouse gas emissions, water quality, waste and more. From ingredients and portion sizes to waste reduction and service ware, review the choices you make as part of the strategy, design and execution of event F&B functions through the lens of sustainability, all based on MPI's new whitepaper, "Sustainable F&B: Your Guide to Eco-Friendly Meals," developed with support from Virginia Beach.

Learner Outcomes:

  • Design and source sustainable menus.
  • Reduce food waste through prevention and landfill diversion.
  • Deep dive into the "Sustainable F&B: Your Guide to Eco-Friendly Meals" white paper as a job aide to designing sustainable meal functions.
