The Uncomfortable Breakfast brings marketers and leaders together to tackle the conversations that are often the hardest to have.
Designed to challenge conventional thinking and encourage honest, open discussion, this thought-provoking breakfast series explores some of the most pressing and uncomfortable questions facing our industry today. Expect candid perspectives, different points of view and conversations that go beyond the surface.
Guests will have the opportunity to join one of Three facilitated table discussions, each focused on a different industry-defining topic and led by an experienced industry leader.
This isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about asking better questions, challenging assumptions and leaving the room with a fresh perspective.
More information on the discussion topics and table leaders will be announced soon.
