Putting the Humanity Back Into Customer Centricity

In today’s competitive business landscape, it’s more important than ever to put the customer at the center of all business decisions. While this truth might be widely held, our ability to build organizations that are readily capable of implementing a customer centric approach is not as accessible as we might desire. This talk uncovers a perspective for customer centricity and provides actionable strategies for adopting this approach within your organization. Hear from Dr. Marcus Collins, professor and best-selling author, for “Putting the Humanity Back into Customer Centricity.”

A Case Study on Addressing Gen Z | Balancing Product, Audience, and Measurement

In this keynote, Mike Finnerty, SVP, Marketing Solutions Global Services at TransUnion will present research on how brands can keep up with Gen Z by serving authentic and meaningful touchpoints along their consumer journey. Afterwards, he’ll be joined by Mike Bregman, Chief Activation Officer at Havas, and Gregg Nathan, SVP, Marketing Effectiveness at Fidelity, on how together they have reached and measured Gen Z audiences.
