A Network To Build Chicago Arts Audiences

May 6, 2009

Understanding Customers and Their Experience

Featuring Chip Conley

How can arts organizations not only survive but grow their audience base in these economic times? The Arts Engagement Exchange presented one of today’s leading experts on creating strong and resilient businesses. Chip Conley, founder and CEO of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, successfully revived his boutique hotel business after the post-dot.com and 9/11 economic downturn. Bringing his message of customer engagement to the arts, Conley shared how he and other successful CEOs have transformed their organizations, achieved sustained success and created loyalty with employees, customers and supporters–and how you can too.
