The Holiday Pivot: What Retailers Can Still Change Before the Biggest Weeks of the Year
The Holiday Pivot: What Retailers Can Still Change Before the Biggest Weeks of the Year
The holiday season is approaching its most critical stretch. But how much can retailers still change once the season is underway?
Join Retail Women in Tech (RWIT), the Accessories Council, and Retail Strategy Group for an intimate evening of cocktails, conversation, and connection with senior leaders from across retail, fashion, accessories, technology, and commerce.
We'll bring together a curated group of 50 industry professionals for a candid executive discussion exploring the signals retailers should be watching in real time - and where they still have room to act.
From inventory, merchandising, pricing, and promotions to customer experience, fulfillment, digital commerce, and store operations, we'll explore how retail leaders are navigating immediate holiday pressures while balancing longer-term brand performance and customer relationships.
