For Wholesale/Distribution CEOs Only
Take Your Company to the Next Level with CEN
The Distribution Industry is Changing Rapidly
Don't navigate it alone.
Our Wholesale and Distribution CEO members face a host of unique challenges including upstream and downstream consolidation, online competitive price transparency, new automation technologies, rising labor costs, better use of data/AI and more.
CEN's wholesale/distribution CEO members share with each other the technologies, processes and approaches that are working for them (and which have not). This sharing of ideas, best practices, benchmarks and advice with non-competitors who understand the distribution business ensures each member gets value from each meeting.
Here are a few samples of topics our Wholesale/Distribution members have discussed at recent meetings:
- Using Automation to Increase Sales and Social Media Marketing
- New Thoughts on the “Amazon Effect”
- Senior Team Development and Succession Planning
- Culture Development Within a Company
- Effective Communication Throughout the Organization
- Processes for Working on, Rather than in, the Business
