 In this episode of Color Bar, we’re joined by Jennifer DiPasquale, Co-Founder and President of Women in Retail and Women Leading Travel & Hospitality—two powerful communities elevating and connecting the voices of women across industries.

Together, we dive into the real-world challenges and bold strategies women leaders are navigating right now—from managing margin pressure and dynamic pricing strategies to embracing AI-powered personalization and redesigning the role of the physical store. We talk about the cautious consumer mindset, the evolving demands of talent attraction and retention, and the rise of reverse mentorship as a powerful leadership tool.
