  Shop Managers Workshop

  Whether the shop you work in is large or small you will find plenty of new information that you can use from your time spent with the crew at Deep Roots Craftsmen. 

  This annual event brings together shop managers & leads from across the country to learn from each other and share challenges unique to those working for someone else.

   Friday Dinner:

  • After we finish our official workshop, anyone who is interested can join us at a local restaurant that will be shared on Friday at 6 pm to continue to network and talk shop over dinner. This is optional at your own expense.
