About

Our next roundtable topic, ‘The Future Franchisee: What Skills Will Matter Most?’, looks ahead at how franchising is evolving — and what that means for franchise owners, leaders, and emerging operators.

As business models shift toward manager-led operations, greater reliance on systems and data, and increasingly complex customer expectations, the role of the franchisee is changing. Success is no longer defined solely by operational know-how, but by leadership capability, strategic thinking, and adaptability.

This facilitated roundtable creates a forward-focused, peer-led space to explore what the next generation of franchise ownership may look like — and what skills today’s franchisees should be developing now to remain competitive and sustainable in the years ahead.

Together, we’ll share perspectives from across the franchising community and discuss how franchisees can evolve from operators into business leaders equipped for long-term success.

What We’ll Cover:

• The shift toward manager-led and multi-site franchise businesses

• Leadership, financial, and strategic skills franchisees will need in the next 5–10 years

• Building capability beyond day-to-day operations

• Technology, data, and decision-making in modern franchising

• What current franchisees should be learning now to stay ahead

This session is ideal for franchisees thinking about long-term growth, franchisors developing future-ready networks, and leaders preparing for the next stage of franchising evolution.

Who Should Attend:

Franchisees, Franchisors, CEOs, Franchise Managers, Business Development Managers, and anyone interested in future capability, leadership development, or the long-term success of franchise networks.
