She will explain how she brought “skeptical truckers with diabetes” and “accountants who love doing calf raises” together through common health goals.

“It’s truly an honor to be able to share what we have done to incorporate wellness into our workplace at Producers Dairy Foods,” said Williams. “I look forward to sharing some of our key learnings and opportunities in hopes to assist other companies facing similar issues with health and wellness.

Brandi’s responsibilities include training and development, recruitment, total rewards (compensation, health & wellness, employee engagement), employee relations, payroll, compliance and occupational safety.
