The WFC produces this highly anticipated conference that serves as an inspirational kick off to the annual IFA Convention. Each year there is an overall leadership theme complemented by a keynote presentation and a panel discussion sharing insights, tools and best practices in leadership and business development. Another popular segment of this conference is the roundtable case study. Participants review and offer solutions to an unidentified franchisor’s problems then hear from a representative of the company to learn exactly what steps were taken to solve the issues. The conference ends with the highly anticipated presentation of the Crystal Compass Award. Through this conference, attendees learn new skills, grow their network of contacts, and start lifetime friendships.

Hear from women leading the charge in franchising. Her Success: The Stories of Female Franchise Leaders is a podcast series produced by the Women’s Franchise Committee.  Tune in monthly for insights on everything from being an effective leader to the mentors who inspired them. These female franchise leaders share stories of workplace challenges we can all relate to: managing work and life, climbing the corporate ladder, and the ultimate power of entrepreneurship and franchising to change lives. Each episode segment will motivate and recharge you.
