What you can look forward to at the 2023 Women in Leadership Conference

If you aren’t moving forward, you are moving backward.
No matter if you lead a multi-generational business, are the steward of a legacy product, or have to stay relevant for a new generation of consumers, moving brands forward requires friction. And that’s not always comfortable. Approaching branding and marketing this way—really business as a whole—requires guts and vision. It means looking at who your customers are or should be. Insights about current customers, combined data, and demographics lead you to where you’ll find and attract your future customers. And it’s where you own your space, compete less, sell more, and amplify profitability.
