THANK YOU! As the fifth annual Women in Retail Leadership Summit (WIRLS) comes to a close, the entire Women in Retail Leadership Circle (WIRLC) team wanted to take a minute to say thank you to all of our fabulous speakers, attendees and sponsors. WIRLC started five years ago with the goal of supporting and advocating for...
Hey ladies! We’re less than a week out from being in sunny Miami at the Women in Retail Leadership Summit (WIRLS), and I for one can’t wait! With all of the fabulous networking opportunities at the Summit, we know WIRLS can be a bit of a whirlwind (see what I did there ;). Below are a...
We’ve had quite a few executive women join Women in Retail Leadership Circle (WIRLC) recently, so, even though we feature new members each week in the Inner Circle, I thought I’d use this space to welcome them. They include: Rachel Feingold, vice president, home store, Century 21 Department Stores; Collette Vaughan, director, e-commerce operations, West Marine;...
How did it get to be almost April?! I’m not sure where March went, but I’m excited April is fast approaching. I’m ready to trade in my snow boots for flip-flops at the (sold out!) fifth annual Women in Retail Leadership Summit in Miami! We can’t believe it’s already been five years, but are over-the-moon...
Hello Inner Circle readers! I’m so excited to share that the inaugural Girls’ Lounge @ Shoptalk was a huge success! At last count about 500 women (and men!) walked through the doors of the Girls’ Lounge @ Shoptalk, and by all accounts everyone enjoyed their experience! Besides some fun activations (e.g., free professional headshots) as well...
Good morning, gals! I’ll keep it short and sweet. We’re just a little over one month out from the Women in Retail Leadership Summit, and I for one can’t wait! However, before we get our sunnies and flip-flops ready for Florida, we’re making a pit stop in Las Vegas and gearing up for The Girls’...
Good morning ladies! Let me open Inner Circle this week by letting you know that the fifth annual Women in Retail Leadership Summit is sold out! That’s right, yesterday, with about a month-and-a-half to go before the Summit commences on April 16 at the Ritz-Carlton in Miami, we filled our 300th seat, which means we’re at...
Good morning ladies! Can anyone tell me where 2018 is going? I can’t believe it’s almost March already. While I’m a little sad time is flying by, I can’t wait for springtime (and what we have in store here at the Women in Retail Leadership Circle!). Below are just a few things I’m looking forward...
Sit back. Close your eyes. Breathe in deeply. Now breathe out. Picture an ocean with gentle waves. Maybe a palm tree. Try to feel the sun on your skin. Now open your eyes. Have I lulled you into a daydream about being on a beautiful beach? Miami Beach, maybe? Well, that dream can be a...
I read a really interesting article this week in New York Magazine that, like so many articles published the second week of February, is all about Valentine’s Day. But what set the article, written by Ann Friedman, apart is how astute it is in casting a light on the most important relationship you’ll ever have: the...
