@SimonTBailey Will do! I’ll tell them it is a great way keep working on the networking — that is our developmental focus area. 😊

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@SimonTBailey I just suggested your Building Business Relationships course to my Mentoring Circle. We’ll be talking about it next month. Thanks for the assist. #liftingothers #itsmybrand

@BlankAvery Thanks, Avery. I see a lot of myself in the five things you noted and shared this with our Women’s network.

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@DrELombardo So true! I work toward a little growth and learning every single day. And some days a big one.

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@JamesPoguePhD Wow! Awesome opportunity. I wish I had insight to provide but that’s one on my bucket list. Can’t wait to hear all about your experiences!

@KarynSchoenbart @Forbes See also: fill the printer paper, report the broken chair, and leave the supply cabinet neat. It’s not about the title, it’s about the team. #weallworkhere

@LoRohland @rachelizabeth96 Shared with my kids — both couldn’t handle it. “Crap, is that from Toledo?” #hidesbehindhand

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@LoRohland @rachelizabeth96 Guess who texted me this just to give me crap about my hometown? #toledorocks #weretrying

Huge thank you to @WFFHQ for hosting such an amazing conference this week. We’re so proud to celebrate the contributions made by women in foodservice over the last 30 years, & can’t wait to see what the next 30 hold! #WFFLimitless #WFFCon

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

This seems so appropriate on the heels of @IndraNooyi encouraging us to be life long learners. There are #limitless learning resources to help us gain knowledge, capabilities, and insight to connect dots. #wffconf @wffhq

The "personal learning cloud" is changing how we develop leaders.

“I still take classes because I’m afraid of being irrelevant. Zoom in, zoom out.” If @IndraNooyi still thinks she has something to learn what is our excuse for thinking we are done? We’re never done. @WFFHQ #wffconf #limitless

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@IndraNooyi reminded us that we need to be tuned to our teams as people, not just employees. So true. I have so many examples of when that has happened for me. @WFFHQ #wffconf #limitless

Three C’s: First you need to be truly Competent in your area of expertise. Then, you need the Courage / Confidence to talk about it. Finally you need to develop the skills to Communicate in a clear and compelling way. @WFFHQ #wffconf #limitless

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

The women should dream as big as the men. Stay active, don’t accept the status quo. Remember your humble roots. #Limitless lessons from @IndraNooyi on the stage at @WFFHQ #wffconf

A great quote from the @angiecoderre and such a real part of our culture. @WFFHQ #wffconf

@Frontrowgirl @WFFHQ She makes mentoring so easy! What a rock star.

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

So proud of @angiecoderre and her leadership on the stage at the @WFFHQ #wffconf. I’ve know since our first mentoring meeting that her future is #limitless.

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@WFFHQ So inspiring!

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@SelimBassoul is asking us to declare our next BOLD MOVE. My next move is to figure out how to take my blog (https://t.co/Ue55duZj2I) to the next level. What’s yours? #limitless @WFFHQ #wffconf

[Too Much Mel @TooMuchMelBlog]

@SelimBassoul you’re right, this industry does have a big heart. @WFFHQ #wffconf #limitless
