FREDERICK — The Plamondon Companies recently hosted an essential management practices skills training session at its training facility in Frederick. The training was attended by 10 of the newer members of management on the Roy Rogers team.

The associates participated in a comprehensive series of classes and programs designed to improve and expand their skills as members of the management team.

The weeklong program featured a variety of relevant topics, including team building, interaction skills, crisis management and government regulations and policies. The specialized training is offered twice yearly to new managers in the Roy Rogers system.
