Summarize with

When talking to most pizzeria owners and operators, they'll say hiring and retention is their No. 1 challenge. The Great Resignation has hit many industries, but restaurants were hit perhaps harder than most. Do people really want to work anymore, and if so, how do you keep good employees? Is paying more enough, and how does a pizza restaurant reward current employees? We're all competing for the same employees, so how do you ensure your business is a standout amongst the crowd?

Michael Lastoria, co-founder and CEO of &pizza, and Dave Jamieson, director of operations for Oath Pizza, will discuss current labor issues and how they deal with recruitment and retention during "Labor Issues and Nouveau Ways to Hire," just one of several sessions taking place during the Pizza Leadership Virtual Summit on July 27. The summit is hosted by Pizzamarketplace.com and Restaurant 365.

The 30-minute back-to-back sessions are designed with the busy QSR executive in mind. The event will cover topics ranging from supply chain issues to delivery trends and digital initiatives covering websites and apps. Speakers include execs from Pizza Ranch, Hungry Howie's, Jet's Pizza and more.
