Are you one of the 14.5 million people in the United States employed in the food industry? If so, you’re a part of a multi-million person club, about 10% of the U.S. adult population, ensuring others enjoy food and drink each day. Most likely, you're a part of a team and expected to build relationships with others. ⁠
⁠
As a member of a team, think about your contributions and how you want to thrive on as well as support the group. The team is ultimately in the business of serving others with awesome food and beverage experiences. And, that means connecting, cooperating and collaborating for the clients, customers and patients who enjoy eating experiences because of the team's expertise. ⁠
⁠
If you want to succeed on the team or find it a challenge to work on team, think about:⁠
1| Finding out what you have in common with others;⁠
2| Being a team player with your strengths and talents;⁠
3| Collaborating for the sake of your customers rather than your own needs and⁠
4| Sharing resources; if you have time, then help others. ⁠

If you have a career or job in the food industry, your customers, clients and patients expect second-to-none service from you and your skill set. ⁠
⁠
When you have a good, bad or indifferent day, give thanks. Reflect one thing you learned today. Doing so may help you move forward with your career. Give gratitude.⁠
⁠
Tell and show people how much you appreciate them, their efforts and beyond.⁠
⁠
Find a way to congratulate someone for a job well done.⁠

A well-tended rose finds its bloom in fall, adapting and ⁠
adjusting to changing conditions. ⁠
⁠
Living in the rural U.S. taught me about responding to and recovering from a variety of circumstances. Experiencing first hand the devastating effects of the farm crisis as well as a tornado wiping out my family's home and farm put life into perspective at an early age. ⁠
⁠
The grit gained from these experiences helped me find my way out of my humble beginnings. These challenging circumstances forever altered my career trajectory, enabling me to contribute to others' lives meaningful ways in the food industry. ⁠

To move forward in the food industry, find the resilience that resides within you. ⁠

Today I’m hosting Beekuba to help you to begin thinking about your career and how by identifying your talent patterns you can develop them even further into unstoppable strengths!

How are you thriving by using your talents in the food industry?
Reflect on the talents you bring to everyday activities. Talents are unique patterns of behavior, feeling, or thinking that can be applied productively. If you love something, it's likely a talent, whether entertaining with culinary creations or organizing your pantry.

Consider the strengths you've developed through practice, knowledge, and skills. Preparing your favorite recipe and having the knowledge to innovate with new ingredients - are examples of your talents turned strengths.

Your talents developed into strengths are valuable assets to leverage in achieving your goals and making a positive impact. Embrace your talent and cultivate them into their full power - they make you special.

Building on and contributing your strengths to others creates sustainable leadership, balancing short-term goals with long-term environmental and social impact. Sustainable leadership encourages collaboration via coalitions, employee empowerment, and advocacy for sustainable practices across industries. By modeling sustainability and resilience, U.S. leaders can inspire systemic change toward a more environmentally and socially responsible future.

How might you leverage your talents as strengths to advance your sustainable leadership?
Why is it important to engage in sustainable leadership through a strengths-based lens?
What talent will you evolve into strength for sustainable leadership in the food industry?

Beekuba is a Strengths-based company that provides transforming, sustainable talent and leadership development solutions to help individuals, teams and organizations THRIVE!

Beliefs and values inform how we lead in our food career and job. Think about beliefs as commonly accepted truisms when and where you consistently have confidence, faith and trust in a situation, someone and or something. Values arise from our beliefs, informing how we live and work. ⁠
⁠
We search for and interpret information that confirms our beliefs and values. Our reality is shaped by what we believe and our values. What do you believe about yourself in your food career? What are your values when it comes to serving others in your food job? If you think and act on your beliefs and values, focusing on them regularly in your conversations and work, you’ll see them come alive to move forward in your career. ⁠

Your dependability determines your ability to grow and be trusted (lead cool projects, feel more energized and possibly, make more $$) your food career in your job. ⁠
⁠
Here’s how to do the work well.⁠
1| Finish the job. Problems are inevitable, so developing a tightly focused, results-driven, problem-solver mentality is a must. Keep a keen eye on the timelines, involve others as needed. ⁠
⁠
2| A dependable leader is always accountable, and in so doing accepts the blame when things don’t go as planned.⁠
⁠
3| Overdeliver on expectations all the time. If you say you’re going to do something, then do it. Simple as that. A commitment is your word, your promise.⁠
4| Show up on time and prepare for the meeting. Unimportant things count, and this is one that counts heavily. I⁠
⁠
5| Ensure others rely on you. Always bear in mind that others are counting on you. When you signed on to become a leader, you accepted the fact that others will be entrusted to your care. ⁠
⁠
Dependability is an important trait that every leader should embody. It is a prime building block in developing and maintaining trust, something every leader should desire and seek.⁠

As the parent of a member of Gen Z, pictured here, I've learned by the time Gen Z enters the workforce, around 2030, to expect their digital, social media and pandemic experiences will have poised them with an abundance of patience, persistence and perseverance. Focused on diversity and inclusion, Gen Z will soon be setting the pace in quickly developing solutions to long-held, common issues. ⁠

Over 332 million people in the U.S. eat and drink every day. How will you GROW to help feed many?⁠
⁠
This is about you and where you want to go and grow using the four principles below that form and inform the acronym 'GROW'.⁠
⁠
Principle 1: Gratitude⁠
What values define you? Who do you want to be? Focus on optimism within yourself and with others.⁠
⁠
Principle 2: Resilience⁠
You will have failures, setbacks and dips along the way. It will be important to understand how you can recover and thrive before, during and after setbacks. Making a change and altering your course will also be a topic of discussion. It will be incredibly important for you to develop momentum during uncertainty to stay sticky and unstuck.⁠
⁠
Principle 3: Opportunities⁠
How is it that you manifest them in both big and small ways? Invest in yourself and take risks with a direction and destiny in mind. Embrace failure in addition to enjoying your success.⁠
⁠
Principle 4: Wisdom⁠
Being curious, asking questions and doing research is all part of you imparting more wisdom on yourself. You have to show up and do the work—-no one is going to do it for you. You have to be accountable for to yourself and to others.⁠
⁠
In doing all of this YOU GROW, and are the one who creates your community, your network and develops your contacts of people who can help curate the wisdom within. When you are supported and know who to call and reach out to for help and wisdom it allows you to be big, bold and go beyond.⁠

To excel in your food industry career and job, consider coaching questions, asking good questions and responding to questions. ⁠
Any business, company or organization buzzes with questions day in and day out. Listen and study the questions asked.⁠
⁠
1| Coaching Question: asked to formulate a solution rather than given an answer.⁠
⁠
2| Asking Question: asked to clarify to move a task forward. ⁠
⁠
3| Responding to a Question: offering information for decision making.⁠
⁠
Before going to an appointment, meeting or other scheduled event, consider the questions that most likely will be asked.⁠
⁠
Consider this model as a template to report back to your colleagues, team and the person to whom you report. ⁠
• What were the successes and problems? ⁠
• If there were successes, quantify and qualify them. ⁠
• If there were problems, why? ⁠
• How will they issues be fixed?⁠
• How long will it take? ⁠
• Was the client / consumer / customer satisfied with the plan? ⁠
⁠
Questions lead to answers and action. ⁠

The trust others have in you will determine your ability to grow (lead cool projects, feel more energized and possibly, make more $$) your food career in your job. Here’s how to build trust with others.⁠
⁠
1| Make life easier for the person to whom your report and your colleagues. Anticipate issues and offer a solution. Pitch in to help other team members.⁠
⁠
2| Overcommunicate by trusting yet verifying the situation and task that you aligned on with others. To work quickly, make a quick call or text. Email may be too slow for pressing food industry issues. ⁠
⁠
3| Do the job no one wants to do. Step outside your box, cube or niche. Gain experience by volunteering to help someone who’s been swamped by extra work because of a crisis or a tight deadline. new demands. If you’re not permanently buried in your own duties, there are opportunities to pitch in to help other team members. ⁠

Embrace your food career responsibilities because they offer opportunities to manage change. Consider how you can best prepare yourself for change and the challenges associated with it. Reflect on what’s working; what requires improvement and what’s no longer needed. You owe it to yourself and others to own your food career growth.⁠

When you’re in a food career / job, raise your hand to be responsible and be ready to own everything about it, the good, bad and not so good. Taking on responsibility means doing the work yourself and with others. If you’re either over-delegating and/or outsourcing of your intellect, then you’re losing out on a lot of learning opportunities.⁠
⁠
Responsibility rocks because you’re demonstrating the ability and willingness to respond. You get to choose how you respond, either take responsibility and solve the issue or blame others. Responsibility is one of the highest forms of choice. Decide to be 100% responsible for you, and I hope you observe how life transforms to a point where blame doesn’t matter; it’s replaced with acceptance and finding solutions. ⁠

Ever feel less than either capable or qualified for a project or work in your food career? Rather than ruminating about it, question your perception of the activity, event or situation. Ask questions about how you can best respond. ⁠
⁠
Consider the empowering beliefs you can demonstrate, reframing your thoughts with new beliefs to counteract your thinking. Your attitudes and beliefs create the circumstances surrounding your job in the food industry. ⁠
⁠
When you align your beliefs with your intentions, you may be able to move forward more easily. Remember, you can change and influence the outcomes of your food career. ⁠

Use your food industry skills to serve others and yourself. As long as we're serving and working with humans, empathy is always in style. Understanding the feelings of another and offering support or a solution builds trust. ⁠
⁠
The ability to assemble details quickly in the fast-moving environment of the food industry is an admirable and respectable way of working. Employed in food industry's competitive environment, ranging from hospitals to hotels; restaurants to retailers, means carefully and consistently paying attention to the details because margins may be low and employee attrition may be high. Executing the details well is a differentiator. ⁠

Imagine if change didn't exist. We need it to succeed and thrive. With change comes challenges, growth and rewards. ⁠
⁠
After having spent thousands of dollars and years preparing myself to be an academician and researcher, I left my university career. It was scary and I wasn’t sure how I would make a living for myself. ⁠
⁠
Considering my strengths—strong work ethic, bias towards action and accurate, quick decision making, I transitioned to business and industry. The pace of business suited me and I kept learning. To complement my technical credentials, I earned another academic degree. Doing so opened doors to serve the business and its customers as well as professional organizations. Your education is yours forever and it can never be taken away from you. ⁠

Feeling stuck and not sure what to do? Find the sticky side of yourself. It’s the best parts of you. Nurture them consistently so the world can experience your goodness. Watch yourself grow. ⁠
⁠
Present your best self ensures your lesser self stands in the shadows. Only you can do this. If you’re not committed to who you are, then who else will be? Commit to putting your best foot forward consistently. In doing so, you communicate to yourself and to others your attitudes, beliefs, and thoughts about growing your food career job.⁠
