A mature food safety culture is not built through technical systems alone; it emerges through people who feel heard, empowered, and responsible.
Middle management is an often-overlooked sub-group that plays a large part in determining the food safety culture, execution, and risk performance of your food business. The key to unlocking meaningful change in a company's food safety and quality culture—and its organizational culture—does not necessarily come from the top down. In fact, this power often lies with middle managers.
Drawing on findings from social psychology, organizational management, risk management, and real-world case studies, industry and culture experts will show how food safety and quality effectiveness and culture are impacted by organizational structure and resulting behaviors. Register today to learn how the "middle-up-down" approach helps inform managerial interventions that measurably improve FSQ culture, organizational culture, and business strategy.
Attendees will:
- The value middle managers bring to the table in being accountable for day-to-day food safety work and translating intent into on-job behaviors
- How to develop a high-power mindset in middle managers to effect meaningful FSQ culture change and prevent food safety risks
- How investing in middle managers improves both FSQ strategy implementation and accountability across all levels of the company
