Sushi n’ Wine Roundtable - 11.08.2026
About
Our next roundtable topic, ‘People, Performance & Retention’, explores one of the biggest ongoing challenges facing franchise businesses today— finding the right people, keeping them engaged, and managing performance effectively.Recruitment remains difficult across many industries, but retention can be even harder. High turnover, inconsistent performance, and delayed or avoided conversations often place additional pressure on owners and managers already juggling competing priorities.
This facilitated roundtable creates a practical, peer-led environment to openly discuss the realities of managing teams in today’s labour market—from attracting stronger candidates to leading store
managers and supervisors with confidence and clarity.
Together, we’ll share real experiences from across the franchising community and unpack practical approaches that support better leadership, stronger accountability, and more sustainable team performance.
What We’ll Cover:
• Attracting and recruiting people who are the right fit for your business
• Leading and supporting store managers and supervisors effectively
• Having performance conversations early—and making them constructive
• Balancing accountability with team morale and culture
• Practical strategies to reduce turnover and build stronger teams
This session is ideal for franchisees managing growing teams, franchisors supporting network capability, and leaders looking to spend less time firefighting people issues and more time building performance.
Who Should Attend:
Franchisees, Franchisors, CEOs, Franchise Managers, Business Development Managers, and anyone responsible for team leadership, operations, or franchise performance.
