Cascale members, this one’s for you.

CEO Ying McGuire is spending her first 90 days listening — and she wants to hear from you directly.

Join Ying for a casual huddle. No prep, no slides, no agenda. Just a two-way conversation about your story, your pain points, and what’s working (and what isn’t). Ying will also share what she’s been hearing from members so far — and she wants to know if it rings true for you.

And this isn’t listening for listening’s sake: we’ll share the key themes back with you, and what Ying hears will help inform the direction she presents at the Annual Meeting in September.

Whether you’re a manufacturer, brand, retailer, or affiliate — large or small — there’s a session designed for you and your time zone. From minority suppliers to global corporations, Ying has spent her career championing businesses of every size. Pick the huddle that fits, grab a coffee, and come chat — stay for the whole session or just drop in when you can.

Sessions run from July 23 through August 27, with times to suit every region.
