ARF Industry Leader Forum: Discovering Consumer Insights

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2010 • 8:00AM-6:00 PM EST
The New York Athletic Club • New York City
180 Central Park South (corner of 59th Street & 7th Avenue, facing the park)

Can you imagine a world where the CEO views consumer insights as the most profitable oxygen to drive strategy? Where the head of research sits at the head of the table in the CEO’s kitchen cabinet? Where research buyers pay research sellers on the basis of the value of the insight? Where research that just validates is reduced to a small portion of the budget rather than the 80% it is today? Where the future skills or successful researchers begin to include story-telling, anthropology, behavioral economics, and data x-ray vision. Many research industry leaders are not only imagining such a world, they are already working towards it. At the ARF ILF 2010, those leaders will share the vision that is taking them forward.

This one-day industry leader forum will have those shaping the future of our profession share their visions, successes and plans to address:

  • The transformation of our profession; a past, present, and future perspective
  • How do we get insights to affect the marketing organization? How do we go from the “what” to the “now what”?
  • What does an insights-led organization look like? What are the new metrics of success?
  • What are the new tools that insights-led organizations need to succeed?
  • What are the future skills that research and insights professionals need to make a difference?
  • How will research agencies be chosen in the future? What new skills, tools, and account management approaches will buyers be looking for?
