JOIN THE CONVERSATION

CAFÉ is helping educators create a CHANGE MINDSET in culinary education. Care to share? In conjunction with GMC’s story “Discovering a Willingness to Motive and Change,” we asked readers to post their wisdom and experience. Look at Instagram or Facebook for these questions:

  1. How do you create a culture of change in your program?
  2. How can you engage your colleagues in change?
  3. What tactics do you use to connect with students and has it changed?
  4. What tactics do you use to motivate students and has it changed? 

Answer in comments and don’t forget to put the number of the question you are answering. GMC will share the insight in the March edition. 

Let’s keep the conversation going!
