This scholarship has inspired me and given me greater confidence that I can use my skills to help grow the food industry and impact how customers and consumers make food shopping choices.
The Executive Leadership Program was an amazing experience. Not only did I learn about myself as a person, I also gained insight into my role as leader and how I can do my best work. The instructors were wonderful. The lectures were interesting, educational and interactive. I especially loved meeting people from across the country in all areas of the grocery business—and I developed some strong relationships that have lasted well beyond the class. I highly recommend anyone who wants to learn about themselves and take their career to the next level to invest in this program.
I’ve been thrilled to be a part of giving to the NGA Foundation. In addition to serving as chairman of the NGA Foundation Board of Regents, I have given funds for a scholarship because I feel the NGA Foundation’s focus of developing people, motivating and developing leadership, and mentoring are crucial to the future of our industry. All of us in the grocery industry know that it’s the people that make it successful, and the NGA Foundation provides the tools that today’s up-and-coming stars need to be the leaders of our industry tomorrow.” The scholarship is a way for me to give back to the industry that has been so good to me.
