Learning a new job is never easy. But stepping into the role of a school foodservice director presents a specific type of challenge. It’s a professional transition that sometimes requires you to combine parts of the jobs of dietitian, restaurateur, educator and community liaison all into one. Plus, you want to do it in a way that seems fun! It’s the type of position where, even a few years in, it still can feel relatively new. You’re learning new aspects of the job. You’re coming up with new ideas. You’re developing new processes.
