SESSION OVERVIEW


About This Session

Brands are often told to follow culture. The harder question is: which culture?

This session examines how stakeholder pressure, media narratives, internal incentives, and industry expectations can pull brands away from the consumers they exist to serve. Speakers will explore how groupthink forms, how leaders lose sight of customer priorities, and how well-intentioned decisions can become business risks.

The question is simple: are brands listening to their customers, or to the room around them?
