Business
In this episode we chatted with Alfredo Salas, Vice Chair of the Miami Dade College Foundation and proud member of the MDC Alumni Hall of Fame, on why mentoring is important for professional and personal development. Al Salas’ experience in the food service business starts at age 14, when Salas got a job working in a Burger King restaurant. His dedication and customer service caught the eye of Jim McLamore, founding father of Burger King, during one of his field visits. Mentored by Jim, Al became the youngest mini area manager for the chain at only 18 years of age.
