• Managing Performance in a COVID-19 world: The dynamics between operators, suppliers, and distributors have shifted dramatically throughout the last two years. As demand continues to rise, suppliers and distributors are able to choose their partners with more scrutiny. This panel will explore what being a Customer of Choice means, how you become one, and the benefits associated with being one.
