Description

Following the mainstage session Meating People in the Moment, this interactive Solutions Session offers a deeper dive into one of the most critical topics in the industry: food safety leadership at the executive level. 

Dennis Vignieri (Birchwood Foods) and Chris Williams (Pineland Farms Natural Meats) will each share brief, focused presentations on how food safety is prioritized and driven within their organizations. Then, they’ll come together for a candid fireside chat exploring how executive leadership shapes food safety culture, aligns teams around shared values, and turns responsibility into action. 

Building on the Food Safety for Executives initiative, this session offers real-world insights from leaders who are setting the tone from the top. 

Ideal for executives, senior managers, and decision-makers who want to model and reinforce a culture of food safety from the top down.
