Recently, we graduated 155 team members from our Supervisor Development Program. During the three-day conference leading up to graduation, the participants had the opportunity to hear from David Colwell, President of Value Added, Anna Lee Munns, Head of Fed Beef Accounting & Finance and Jason Miller, Head of Prepared Foods Human Resources. These graduates now hold various supervisor roles throughout the company, and we are excited to see all their positive accomplishments.
Last week, 175 members of our Supervisor Development Program, visited Colorado for three full days of leadership development and supervisor training sessions. These supervisors work in a variety of roles across many different US locations. Supervisors attending this event included both recently hired and established team members. At the end of the program all participants graduated from the Supervisor Development Program and are now equipped with skills to help them succeed in their role as a supervisor.
Our team members had a great time connecting with students from many different colleges at IPPE. We had the opportunity to interview and speak with lots of students and can’t wait to see all of the wonderful skills they will bring to our company!
Congratulations to these Pilgrim’s Tomorrow Fund recipients! Every year, an eligible student from each of our facilities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico is awarded a full-ride scholarship to the university of their choice.
