Community engagement is a hallmark of many successful family businesses. Family business leaders make giving back to the communities that support them a pillar of their businesses. Indeed, each fall, the Conway Center for Family Business honors and celebrates many family businesses who are exemplary stewards of our Central Ohio community at its annual awards event.
The Conway Center continues the conversation this month as family business leaders join a panel for discussion, insight and best practices during the program, Legacy: The Importance of Community Engagement. Facilitated by Tiffiney Hatem of The Catholic Foundation, panelists include:
- Jamie T. Richardson, Vice President, White Castle System
- Hope M. Sharett, Director of Community Stewardship, The Crane Group
- JK Williams, Principle-In-Charge, Kirk Williams Company
The program will take place 7:30-9 a.m. on February 16, 2017 in the Community Room in Alumni Hall at Ohio Dominican University, 1215 Sunbury Road, Columbus, OH 43219.
