"You can't go a day without reading about social media and the enormous impact that it's having on our day-to-day lives," says David Jobe, president of CSP's Leadership Conferences. "For the restaurant channel, FohBoh's mission of creating an environment to share ideas, get feedback, make connections to learn and do business is dead-on with Restaurant Leadership's purpose, and our relationship will be a terrific extension for both organizations."
