Beyond Words: How Your Voice Shapes Your Communication Image

6/25/2020

 
We had Dr. Wendy DeLeo LeBorgne, author, internationally-known voice pathologist, communication consultant, and vocal athlete expert at our past Remodista's Community Day a few years ago, and we wanted to re-share. Wendy discussed how to use your voice to influence listeners and revealed the five elements that Influence Your Voice Brand™.

The prime event of your professional career starts in 15 minutes.  Your makeup is flawless and the facial you got yesterday takes five years off your features.

Remodista Chicago Community Day

6/26/2019

 
Remodista's Community Day in Chicago. This day consisted of our innovation-extracting Collective Think, a Circular Conversation, and our Experience Lab that helps us identify regional innovation and solutions.  In the Collective Think, we extracted small bits of insights through a series of exercises we have developed over the years. After synthesizing the data, we share it back, in order to create a quickening of knowledge in our community. We do this in a multi-week content roll out, so you can absorb the information and then build a strategy from what you learn. ​ The Experience Lab is interaction with retail and innovation with our sponsors and iLab Pitch Finalists in the midwest.

Last week, we spent the afternoon at Duggal Studios in the Brooklyn Navy Yard talking through new solutions for our community. Their facilities are inspiring, and it's a great place to open your mind.

Since the debut of our iLab, Remodista has been laser focused on creating relevant and impactful solutions for our retail and brand partners seeking to launch and grow innovative in-store and pop-up experiences. 

​We bring together partners who might not have traditionally found each other, and the solutions we are building will be impactful in the next few years.  Remodista is building a new kind of partner channel, one that meets the future, ahead of the market.  Trusted community is the future of business.

​We will highlight all of these new solutions, in our iLab, at our 4th Annual Community Day in NYC, September 19th at The Glass Houses overlooking the Hudson River. ​We hope to see you at this signature event.

Women2Watch conference Recap: World Retail Congress #WRC2019

5/26/2019

 

High Velocity at #WRC19

This year's theme at World Retail Congress was "high velocity retail." Retail has been speeding up for a long time, and now the barriers to entry are much lower for all. The Remodista Team spent a few days in Amsterdam, focused on retailer leaders who are winning around the world.
One of the opening discussions featured Judith McKenna, President and CEO of Walmart International who has overseen massive change since moving into this leadership role. Judith discussed their global expansion looking at India and China. There are clearly many reasons to be excited about the innovation they are bringing to the market through partnerships, such as Flipkart's payment app "PhoneFe".
Another one of our favorite talks was The African Retail Phoenix panel with Suzie Wokabi of Suziebeauty, Jessica Anuna of Klasha, and Melanie Hawken who spoke on the growth potential in Africa. Online retail will reach 74$ Billion by 2025, and the median age is 19-25. Bringing large companies to support women-owned companies, will bring a  prosperous future to Africa's global development.
