Event Details
Join the Center for Family Business for a lively breakfast program with Jamie Richardson, White Castle’s Chief Marketing Officer, fourth-generation family member, and self-described Craveologist. Jamie will share lessons from more than 25 years helping carry forward one of the country’s best-known family businesses, with humor and insight on leadership, storytelling, and the realities of family enterprise. Known for his energetic style, Jamie has brought White Castle’s story to national audiences through television, media, and entertainment appearances, and has testified before Congress on issues affecting restaurants and family businesses.
Before joining White Castle, Jamie worked for the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency, leading teams to five EFFIE Awards, the highest industry recognition for advertising effectiveness.
After sharing his stories, Jamie will be joined by his wife, Kate Richardson, a former White Castle board member, for a conversation about governance, family meetings, and the unique perspective of being an in-law in a family business.
A morning of insight, humor, and family business wisdom — no slider required.
