SUMMARY:The 5th P of Marketing - Pivot (or in this case\, Pandemic)
DESCRIPTION:How Marketing Communications Teams are Navigating the Ultimate Test \nThursday\, February 25\, 12 to 1 p.m. EST\, Zoom \nTo keep pace in the ever-changing consumer landscape\, businesses in Canada have a difficult task at hand when it comes to engaging with customers.  In retail specifically\, winning requires retailers to take an adaptive\, dynamic\, and dexterous approach that puts the customer at the centre…especially when it comes to their marketing communications strategy.   \nJoin Canadian Tire’s AVP of External Communications\, Stephanie Nadalin\, and Irene Daley\, AVP of Strategic Marketing\, as they talk about the pace of change – not only keeping up\, but how to break through and win with customers\, even in a global pandemic. \nFees: \n$15: IABC Member rate ($16.95 with HST) \n$30: Non-member rate ($33.90 with HST) \nMEMBERS REGISTER HERE \nNON-MEMBERS REGISTER HERE \nNote: This is a Zoom meeting.

In March of 2020\, many Canadian Tire stores were suddenly closed to customers as part of the public health emergency orders issued by provinces scrambling to stop the spread of COVID-19. Stephanie will tell the story of Canadian Tire’s cross-country pivot\, with communications at the hub of the rotation as the company had to adapt to a new and unprecedented reality\, while still trying to serve its customers and supply their needs. \n  \nIrene Daley\, Associate Vice President\, Strategic Marketing\, Canadian Tire Corporation \nAs AVP\, Strategic Marketing at Canadian Tire Corporation\, Irene is responsible for leading one of Canada’s most iconic brands. Tasked with not just maintaining brand love for a nearly century-old retailer\, Irene endeavours to contemporize and grow the Canadian Tire brand. Irene leads her team to evolve Canada’s Store marketing campaigns\, with results recognized and awarded both at the national and international level with multiple Effies\, Cassies and CMAs. \nWhen Canadians were faced with a global pandemic\, the Canadian Tire team knew that their brand needed to maintain its role of being there for Canadians\, whatever the situation. Whether it was during lockdowns\, while stores were closed or when numbers started to flatten\, stores were there to serve their communities with essential products and safe shopping options. Our brand purpose to equip Canadians for the jobs and joys of life in Canada\, became the guiding light for everything. While life in Canada continues to change\, Canadian Tire will continue to adapt to help Canadians continue to make the most of their lives at home. \nIrene is based in Toronto and is also a member of the CMA’s Ethics and Standards Committee. Prior to Canadian Tire\, Irene spent 17 years in Retail and CPG marketing leading iconic global brands like Oreo\, Ritz\, What’s Cooking and Kraft Dinner at Kraft Heinz. \n	\n	\n		 \n		Facebook		Twitter				Linkedin										Email
