    Customer Experience in the Age of AI w/David Edelman

    Tuesday, May 14, 2024 • 8:00 – 11:00 am

    Digital-advantage supremacy has gone well beyond the boundaries of traditional marketing to become a much broader C-suite issue. With more than 1 million LinkedIn followers, David Edelman will explain how most CEOs and their C-suite colleagues claim to recognize the importance of the customer experience. But we often see more talk than action. That must change. Every company needs an explicit strategy for building an intelligent experience engine, which can align the organization toward using AI, personalization, and agile processes to build deeper, more enduring brand loyalty.

    Business Transition Handbook: How to Avoid Succession Pitfalls & Create Valuable Exit Options w/Laurie Barkman

    Thursday, November 21, 2024 • 8:00 – 11:00 am

    When you’re ready to sell, the company may not be sell-ready–leaving you out of time and unrewarded. Most entrepreneurs are too busy to begin thinking about the end. But you may be leaving money—and your happiness—on the table. It’s crucial to start planning for your transition, whether it comes next year or in a decade. The Business Transition Handbook demystifies the often-overwhelming exit process, guiding business owners who are considering leaving their ventures or simply beginning to think about their next steps.
