How has George Schenk paved the way for empowerment at his company?

George Schenk’s passion is making work meaningful, sustainable, and personal. He learned about wood-fired cooking from his grandmother in Vermont and, years later, rekindled his love of it when he founded the American Flatbread Company. His company produces frozen wood-fired flatbread pizzas from allnatural, locally grown ingredients, handmade by 100 employees in Waitsfield and Middlebury, Vermont.
