Media Alert: 7th National Retail & CPG Executive Summit
NEW YORK, February 28, 2018 (Newswire.com) - What: At the Retail & CPG Executive Summit, join fellow senior Retail and CPG Executives on a collaborative exploration of how to build a competitive retail brand from the inside out.
Building a customer experience that both delights the customer and drives revenue requires transforming not only the front-end consumer touch points but also the back-end processes that support that experience. Successful retail and CPG brands understand that innovation must incorporate more than sexy new digital tools. Meaningful innovation begins with the right team, organized in an effective manner with an organizational structure and communication system that allows for efficient decision-making.
As more and more brands add the title Chief Experience Officer (CXO) to their C-Suite it begs the questions: “Where does the customer experience begin?” and “Who is responsible for delivering a great customer experience?”.
The Retail & CPG Executive Summit addresses these questions and several others that arise in the course of building a seamless and satisfying customer experience.
The summit is hosted by Momentum in partnership with Columbia Business School’s Center on Global Brand Leadership and Nasdaq.
