Effective Change Management (CM) for a strong Food Safety Management System (FSMS)

Effective change management is one of the most critical and most overlooked elements of a strong Food Safety Management System (FSMS).

This webinar will explore those core principles and connect them to today’s regulatory and industry expectations.

The event will focus on the convergence of policy, science, and best practices. With the conference being held near Washington, D.C., the program continues to emphasis on policy discussions, reflecting the growing need to address regulatory and legislative issues. The program will also prioritize the sharing of best practices, offering attendees the chance to learn from one another and engage in collaborative problem-solving on hot-button issues.
