The PBA Executive Summit is where manufacturers, distributors, salon & spa owners and industry leaders come together to connect and collaborate; utilizing consumer and salon insights, forecasting and visionary thought to unite, inspire, create change, and spark innovation.
With the evolution in consumer behavior, we have seen a seismic shift of how businesses need to operate. Navigating the new world of beauty requires agility, an understanding of convergent channels, a focus on cross-industry collaboration, and leaders
that fuel cultures to champion innovation.

The traditional distribution model is changing. Channels are converging and collaboration with industry partners is more important than ever. As leaders, we need to innovate, drive change, and operate with a future mindset.
In this session,
we look through the lens of the distributor on how digital tools can make our teams stronger, the customer experience more personal, how collaboration and insights can inform decision making, and how to help our salons and stylists to embrace change.
The evolution of the salon and spa is now. Do you offer a client driven culture, deliver a consistent and sustainable experience, and lead with a future-focused educational mindset?
This panel of salon/spa experts will dive into how they
have created education environments, rich and inclusive cultures, sustainable salon solutions, and a consistency to deliver a guest experience that creates raving fans.

Keynote Speaker Heather McGowan talks what to expect at this years summit >
Accelerated change driven by exponential growth in technology as well as a hyperconnected and interdependent global economy have dramatically reduced the lifespan of products, services and traditional business models. In this new reality, we can no longer rely on the old way of doing things but must shift our focus to two critical elements: culture and capacity.
Culture is the external expression of the brand and the internal operating systems of how the organization creates value. Capacity is the organization’s ability to respond to challenges.
Waves of digital transformation and exponentially growing technological capability will demand continuous expansion of capacity. Attend this session to understand why companies that endure and thrive will be those that can clearly articulate and nurture their culture while continuously expanding their capacity.
A new generation of leaders must build innovative organizations by breaking free from the rigid processes and risk-averse cultures that hold companies and employees back. Business models weren’t the only thing disrupted when the world became digital-first overnight. Leadership itself needs a Ctrl-Alt-Del to compete in this new and still evolving world.
Today’s leaders must reassess how digital technologies, evolving behaviors and expectations, and innovative leadership and operating models can lead to the creation of new market value. Otherwise, executives will get stuck in a finite cycle of trying to succeed in a digital economy with a pre-digital value proposition.
In this session, you will learn the difference between digitization and digital transformation and understand how to empower collaboration and change to unlock new opportunities.
