Tune in to hear how decades of leadership, a global outlook, and a bold trip to Brazil helped shape Rochester’s future… and why the real key to innovation might be as simple as staying human in a high-tech world.  Key Moments:   00:00: P2P, Global CX, and Hyper-Personalization at Scale05:55 Introducing Colin Strother, EVP at Rochester Electronics09:55 Keys to Global Customer Engagement14:07 Implementing P2P and Unified Commerce19:47 AI and Digital Transformation at Rochester36:34 Building Trust in Change Management39:41 Adopting Slack for Business Efficiency45:48 Navigating Data Integration  53:14 Hyper-Personalization at Scale01:01:26 Leadership and Authenticity at Rochester Electronics
