#Retail. What worked? What failed and why? What’s next?
Join Anne Marie Stephen, Steve Dennis and me for a dynamic, entertaining and informative discussion on Sunday, January 13th, from 7 until 9 PM.
In 2019, regardless of size, tenure or segment of business retailers, brands and suppliers must recognize that they can no longer navigate the new landscape with old maps.
Tomorrow’s retail winners will be nimble, data-driven, fast-to-market and cost efficient. They will have the foresight, fortitude and fearlessness to disrupt their own identity and legacy models.
“Do or do not. There is no try.”
The rate of change will escalate. There is no time for deep contemplation. Winners will leap, measure and then optimize.
Failing fast will be a requirement, not an option. Succeeding fast will be a requirement, too.
Warning: One can identify prognosticators who use a crystal ball to predict the retail future. They’re the ones with glass shards in their bleeding hands and smoke issuing from their charred eyebrows.
