Executive Update with Right at Home | May 3rd, 2022
Join us for a conversation with Right at Home Executive Margaret Haynes, CEO, who discusses Right at Home’s annual conference, Home Improvement. Home Improvement allows our franchisees time to connect and learn best practices from each other over the prior year.
Franchisees can provide input on the 2023 subject matter for the next conference, to be held in Orlando, Florida, through a content committee of owners and office staff so the conference is meaningful to all attendees.
Who can attend? Haynes notes franchise owners, of course. And, owners can also choose to bring office staff as a reward or a way to make them feel part of the bigger picture. There are many vendor partners, and corporate employees, in attendance.
