As a part Rhonda Levene's goal to lead the way in restaurant technology innovation while fostering equality across the industry, Ziosk joins brands across the globe in celebrating International Women's Day on March 8, embracing this year's themes of "Embrace Equality" and the U.N.'s "DigitALL: Innovation and Technology for Gender Equality." Under Levene's leadership, Ziosk strategically supports this cause and theme by promoting the hiring, training and continued growth for women in the digital age.

DALLAS, March 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ziosk®, an industry-leading technology platform that helps restaurants increase operational efficiency and optimize the guest experience, is driving innovation in technology through its work within the hospitality sector to improve the dining experience for both servers and their guests, while also providing female leaders a seat at the table in a male-dominant industry.

According to an April 2022 article by Deloitte, "Women in tech are cracking the industry's glass ceiling, achieving double-digit gains in leadership roles". The article states roughly one in four leadership positions at large global technology firms were expected to be held by women by 2022. And at Ziosk that is the case today.

“I believe in building a diverse and talented team that's empowered to elevate the company and take it into the future, which includes ensuring women are given opportunities to lead alongside me."

Rhonda Levene, President and COO of Ziosk, is not only leading the strategic direction of the company, but is a passionate advocate for diversity, equity and inclusion. As a part of her advocacy, Levene has helped to drive progress for women in corporate America for decades in multiple executive leadership roles for global, Fortune 50, private, and early-stage companies, as well as private equity backed brands.

Levene co-wrote a book, 2006's Glass Walls: Reality and Hope Beyond the Glass Ceiling with Jean Rostollan, which described the impact of isolation and unexpected marginalization women encounter when organizations are anchored by a closed group of males. The book shared inspirational stories from women who have endured and overcome the Glass Wall phenomenon, and provided needed survival tactics to help women navigate their careers through challenges and toward success.

"My goal as President is to drive growth by strengthening Ziosk's capabilities, expanding into other hospitality-focused industries and hiring the best of the best," said Ms. Levene. "I believe in building a diverse and talented team that's empowered to elevate the company and take it into the future, which includes ensuring women are given opportunities to lead alongside me."

Before joining Ziosk, working for Fortune 50 companies like The Coca-Cola Company and its premier foodservice division created in Levene a lifelong passion for serving others through the hospitality sector. As hospitality technology advanced, so has Levene's vision for using it to enhance guest experiences and solve issues plaguing the restaurant industry. Her experience and focus on driving product innovation at Ziosk has contributed to the success of the company and hospitality customers across the country.

As a part Levene's goal to lead the way in restaurant technology innovation while fostering equality across the industry, Ziosk joins brands across the globe in celebrating International Women's Day on March 8, embracing this year's themes of "Embrace Equality" and the U.N.'s "DigitALL: Innovation and Technology for Gender Equality." Under Levene's leadership, Ziosk strategically supports this cause and theme by promoting the hiring, training and continued growth for women in the digital age.

Ziosk intentionally incorporates women into the organization in key leadership roles, which better reflects their customer base and the larger society, while delivering results for the company. Levene is building a world-class team of leaders, inclusive of strong, qualified women, to help shape the company and the industry. Ziosk's team includes female leaders in strategic roles including Chief Accounting Officer, Director of Marketing, Director of Project Management and Implementation, and Director of Business Intelligence.

"It's rewarding to help women grow in their careers and to teach the importance of being confident in your skills, staying focused on your goals, and working hard to create a supportive environment for yourself and other women in the industry", said Levene.

With a qualified and diverse team leading the way, Ziosk operates with a customer-first mindset, creating products that prioritize operational efficiency and serve restaurant customers by helping them grow their businesses and provide their guests with meaningful experiences.

"Rhonda has a love for hospitality and a passion to help power the next generation of restaurants to serve their customers better", said Ziosk CMO Steve Beckham. "She successfully combines a customer-first mentality, an inclusive leadership style, and a focus on delivering restaurant tech innovation to help shape the industry with a more human focus, creating deeper connections between restaurants and consumers."

With new solutions on the horizon and the goal to expand into new segments in the future, Ziosk aims to be a strong yet unique competitor in the technology industry by furthering human connections, establishing themselves as a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion, and working towards integrating their technology into the hospitality industry as a whole to bring about positive industry advances and overall growth.
