President, CGK
Dealers face a challenge that’s arguably unique to the car business — your customers and employees span multiple generations — baby boomers, Generation X, millennials, Generation Z, and, in a few years, Generation Alpha. Each cohort holds expectations of you, your business culture and processes that differ, depending on whether you’re serving them as customers or as members of your team. This challenging mix tests the traditional one-size-fits-all approach dealers often take to managing their customers and their people. It begs the question: How can any dealer create committed, loyal customers and employees across generations when we’re taught that it’s impossible to satisfy everyone? If special guest speaker Jason Dorsey doesn’t have the answers, he’s at least got the insight and research to help you discover the answers for yourself and your business. In what promises to be an entertaining, inspiring and actionable keynote address, Jason will help every Access: Innovation attendee move a step closer to acting on the understanding that the best way to attract and retain tomorrow’s customers and top talent comes from the way you lead and manage toward this important outcome today.
