The event will be held in collaboration with Columbia University's Center on Global Brand Leadership and Lippicott Margulies.Featured speakers include Tom Peters, President and Founder, The Tom Peters Company; and Carl James Yankowski, Former President of Sony Electronics and CEO of Palm. Experiences of the last year have shaken the foundation of trust in business and society that we used to take for granted. The full extent of this loss of trust has not yet become clear, but what is clear is that trust is an important building block in creating a positive customer experience. The critical challenges facing us now are rebuilding and sustaining trust in this changed world, and then measuring and understanding the results of our efforts in order to create continuous improvement.
