ZingPosium
The Details

Solve problems at their source


April 21-22, 2026

Most organizational challenges can be classified as either systems, training, or management issues—but it's trickier than you think to know which is which.

At ZingPosium 2026, discover a game-changing lens to approach problems in entirely new ways! Over two information-packed days, you'll build skills and confidence to analyze organizational challenges, uncover what really drives them, and ultimately, take action to make positive change.


Objectives

What You'll Learn


  • Pinpoint the root cause of recurring problems to address them at their source
  • Gain clear frameworks and tools you can apply immediately to solve the challenges in front of you
  • Discover fresh perspectives and peer support through sharing insights and experiences
  • The advantages of learning alongside others and developing a network of peers to call upon for support, to share in successes, and to help get past roadblocks

Plus! You'll get an out-of-this-world Zingerman's experience, including shared meals from our restaurants and official ZingPosium swag!


 

 “So valuable and fantastic! A tremendous team of speakers and facilitators.”
