Mastering the Toughest Job in Franchising: The Role FBCs Play in Driving a Dynamic Franchise Culture
Culture is indisputably one of the most important differentiators in franchising. Franchise leadership is ultimately responsible for the overall culture of the organization, but FBCs are the unsung heroes that can make it (or break it). Susan Black-Beth will share her perspectives from 22+ years as a multi-unit franchisee, franchisor, advisor and private equity investor on why FBCs are the bedrock of a dynamic franchise culture, what they need from franchise leaders to be successful, and the secrets every FBC needs to know to align franchisors and franchisees with a shared vision for success.
