Leadership Breakfast: The New Employee Experience — Staying Relevant For the Next Generation

Sky Lobby, Hotel Indigo

Amidst the great resignation, companies and agencies are keenly focused on bringing brand stories to life in fresh new ways. This requires recruiting and retaining the next generation of marketing and advertising talent.

As the workforce becomes increasingly multigenerational and multicultural, what do younger employees expect from company leadership, and how can employers stay competitive and relevant as the search for quality talent gets tougher?

This leadership breakfast panel will explore these questions and more. This is an invite-only event.

Advertising Week Meditation Mornings with Lenore Moritz

Nielsen Delegates Lounge

RSVP by clicking here, places limited.

Attending industry events can be overwhelming. But what if you could start early with a moment to energize your mind and focus before the busy day begins? Now you can at Advertising Week New York.

Join us each morning at 8:45am in the Delegates Lounge, where meditation teacher Lenore Moritz will take you through a themed program for the week.

We’ll have a new theme each day:

Flow…be more productive
Reaction…how do we choose to engage — or not
Change…let it be
Reframe…see things in a new light

Calm yet energized. Focused and mindful. Productive, creative and happy. Plus, you’ll go into your day with at least one simple tool that you can access anytime.

We’ll use a combination of coaching, meditation and mindfulness and information that will bring fun, ease and freshness to your work and personal life. You don’t need to “believe” in or know anything to join the session, and you don’t need to be a meditator (but it’s fine if you are!) — this is for everyone.

All you have to do is show up, and you will definitely come away with something useful, ready to start your day at AWNewYork.

The Insights Arena

What’s in a name — an arena name to be exact? The global sports sponsorship market is expected to reach $90B U.S. by 2027, with a large portion coming from naming rights deals. For most pro sports teams, the name of the home stadium is just as well known amongst fans as the names of its star players, coaches and mascots.

From branded signage, tickets, merch and more — securing a brand’s name on a popular sports or entertainment venue can lead to billions of targeted impressions and coveted “top of mind” awareness.

Replay Session: Why Coming Out at Work is Good for Business

The Amazon Ads Studio

Missed the live stream of this session earlier? Catch up online on the Amazon Ads Studio with this replay of this popular session from our live stages in New York.

Former NBA Superstar Jason Collins made headlines when he came out as gay. His story is like so many in advertising and business in general — individuals who stay in the closet because it feels like a safer space.

But the world is missing out on the diversity of views LGBTQ+ individuals have when they can bring their whole selves to the workplace — be it on the court, in a meeting or in collaboration with others.

In a panel moderated by Lisa Granatstein, Chief Content Officer at Front Office Sports, hear Jason Collins talk about his decision to come out. They will be joined in conversation by Reckitt CMO Gary Osifchin, and DNA Chairman Alan Brown, who will share their personal stories and share learnings and insights on why coming out is good for people, brands and business.

Barbie is the top-selling toy of all time. The number one doll property in the world. And a global icon. Barbie is a brand that’s lived at the heart of culture for more than 63 years in a category where the life expectancy of a typical toy is 3-5.

Lisa McKnight, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Barbie and Dolls at Mattel, will chronicle Barbie’s brilliant rise, a nearly devastating stumble and the celebrated comeback that’s casting her legacy forward as a brand that matters and a brand that has never been more relevant. Barbie has critical influence with a massive global platform to model empowerment and inclusion, advocating for the limitless potential in all of us.

Brand and Creativity Walk Into a Bar...

The Great Minds Stage, Presented by Roundel

We believe that marketing has the power to shape our culture and the way we think, but our over-reliance on conscious, causal, purely data driven approaches may kill the creativity that got us here in the first place.

Four marketing leaders, with unique journeys, products and audiences come together to define what creativity is to them, what makes us creative, how creativity impacts culture, and the variety of ways available for us to express fully on behalf of our brands without being held to the standards of the past.
