Join us for our Leadership Speakers Series, featuring Bob Johnston , Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer for Front Burner, for his presentation titled "Knowing Who You Are: The role culture plays in unifying the organization". Bob Johnston started his first job with the Melting Pot when he was 14 and was bitten by the hospitality bug. As a result, Bob literally grew up in the business and cannot see doing anything else. As Bob likes to say, “This is my first and last job.” Bob oversees three affiliated dynamic and niche-specific brands including the Melting Pot®, Melting Pot Social®, and Oronzo® Honest Italian. Bob continues to lead the Melting Pot brand on an evolution creating memories and the Perfect Night Out® for every guest. The Leadership Speaker Series is dedicated to bringing outstanding leaders from the private, government and nonprofit sectors to campus to discuss business topics and corporate strategies with students, faculty, alumni and members of the community. Leaders candidly share their experiences, discuss challenges which have impacted their leadership development and provide advice to aspiring leaders.
