Date: Thursday 21st May, 5pm-5.45pm (via Zoom)
The coronavirus will have had positive and negative repercussions on the location planning and customer insight community. There is no doubt that there will always be a need for strong analytics to support business decisions, but many analysts will be using this time to reflect on where next for their career.
This session will bring together some Location Planning Practitioners who are now plying their trade in different analytical roles.
They will seek to draw out the transferable skills from their location planning days as well as identify some of the new skills they have gained and facilitate a wider discussion of the challenges they have faced along the way
There will be an opportunity for those registered to submit their questions in advance.
