The current economic implosion has brought with it a severe slowdown in retail sales and massive changes in consumers’ consumption habits, making the job of a retail Chief Marketing Officer that much more difficult. With Chief Marketing Officers already dealing with challenges such as achieving distinction in a crowded market space, going global as the world shrinks and utilizing social media, they now face even greater pressure on top of performing in a role with a comparatively shortened tenure.
It is against this backdrop that Argyle Executive Forum, in partnership with USA TODAY, presents its 2009 CMO Spotlight Forum: Retail and Consumer Goods & Services event, taking place in New York. The event will bring together the marketing leadership from approximately 120-130 public and private large- and mid-cap retail or consumer product and service corporations, complementary areas of executive leadership, as well as select advisors.
This event is by invitation only, and an invitation code is required. If you did not receive an invitation but would like to inquire about attendance, please click here.
