Responding to Change

Play

Aaron and Erich will discuss how we respond to real and perceived changes in our industry, markets, and the overall decoration landscape, focusing on finding opportunities, redirecting opposition, and cutting through resistance when you need to act. With an on-the-floor report from our own Terry Combs, we’ll have plenty to talk about concerning what’s new in our industry while discussing how to position ourselves to take it on.
