Work-life balance, prioritization, setting boundaries and adapting to change were key topics at the recent Professional Development Discussion Panel at the Society of Bakery Women (SBW) Annual Dinner, held in Chicago on Saturday, February 25.
Led by Lisa Turano, VP Legal Turano Baking and President of the Turano Foundation, the lively and interactive session allowed women at different stages of their career share tips and advice with the gathered audience, which included 27 KSU students. Panel members included Valerie Wayland, Regulatory Compliance Director, Flowers Foods; Beth Fahey, RBA President and owner of Creative Cakes Bakery and Café; Jesse Stinson, Senior Manager, Sweet Good Application, Corbion and Sarah Moore, Product Development, Pepperidge Farm (and former SBW scholarship winner.)
Thanks to SBW’s generous sponsors AB Mauri; Watson, Inc.; Corbion; Delavau; Kudos Blends; DSM; Mother Murphy’s; Lallemand; Dupont; ABA; Gold Coast Ingredients, Inc ASB; BEMA; The Retail Bakers of America; and BAKERpedia, for the first time in its history the SBW awarded four scholarships to KSU students which were awarded during the ATBI Breakfast at the ASB BakingTech Conference.
