Surviving and Thriving During Covid with Stu Rosen, Highland Baking Company
Stu will take us through his journey and share “how taking a proactive, long-term approach both before and during Covid has enabled Highland Baking to come through Covid stronger than when we went in.”
Key Take Aways to Look For from Highland Baking’s Success:
The most important thing to surviving a crisis is not what you do during that crisis, it’s how you behave all the other times there is not a crisis.
Why in our industry, even though revenue was down over 40%, the decision to make our largest investment ever was the right thing to do
Why people always were, still are, and will be the key to anything we do
About Stu Rosen: "I am a fourth generation baker and the fortunate to be the second generation leader of this particular baking company. I have been blessed to inherit an excellent situation to build off and a great team to work alongside. While most of preparation took place working at the bakery as much as I was allowed to from the time, I was 6, I also hold a bachelor’s degree from the Cornell School of Hotel Administration and a Master’s Degree from the Kellogg School of Business.
In addition to my Highland family, I live in Highland Park with my wife Leslie, who I was lucky enough to meet my first day of college, and our four children – two daughters who are 15 and freshman at Lake Forest Academy and a son and daughter who are 12 and in 7th grade at Lake Forest Country Day School."
