WiRL Workshop
September 2, 2025, 12:00 PM - 4:15 PM · Atlanta, GA
Introducing the first WiRL Workshop! This exclusive lunch-and-learn, presented in partnership with LEAD, GLEAM, and Full Course, is designed to fuel your leadership journey with four engaging, no-fluff workshop sessions. We’re diving into leadership development, financial acumen, and mentorship, with a fourth session still under wraps (but we promise, it’ll be worth the wait). Plus, lunch!
For those who missed the WiRL Together Summit in February, consider this your bite-sized version—a high-energy, no-holding-back opportunity to connect, learn, and level up. You’ll walk away with real insights, real connections, and maybe even a few new mentors in your corner.
The WiRL Workshop is an exclusive add-on at QSR Evolution, built for women ready to sharpen their skills and shake up the industry. It can be paired with our popular WiRL Networking Reception! Join us as we keep pushing for a stronger, more inclusive future—because leadership should be bold, and so should you.
To note: You must register for QSR Evolution or the NextGen Restaurant Summit to gain access.

Tuesday, September 2nd
Amy Hom, COO | Barcelona Wine Bar
Join us for a luncheon hosted by LEAD, the organization dedicated to accelerating emerging leaders. This session goes beyond small talk—expect real conversations about career growth, navigating leadership challenges, and building your influence in the restaurant industry. It’s purposeful networking with a side of inspiration to-go.
Lauren Fernandez, Founder & CEO | Full Course
Led by the team at Full Course, this session dives into the dollars and sense of leadership. Whether you’re scaling a concept or managing a P&L, financial confidence is non-negotiable. We’ll break down the numbers, demystify the jargon, and help you build the business acumen every leader needs—but no one teaches.
Sheri Miksa, 5X CEO/Pres. (BIBIBOP, Boneheads, Mazzio’s, Robeks, Rubio’s) | GLEAM Network
