SUMMARY:Discussion Club - 11/29/2024
DESCRIPTION:Where CAIPs come together to discuss topical subjects of interest to the Analytics and Insights Industry.\nAt the end of the month CAIP Canada hosts a gathering of the CAIP Canada Discussion Club. Each month you’ll be invited to read a published article of relevance to the analytics and insights sector. We will then gather as a community to discuss the research. \nDon’t worry\, there won’t be a test!  \nThis is an opportunity to delve into subjects of interest and concern to us all in a relaxed and informal setting. We hope you are able to make this a regular meeting spot on an ongoing basis!  \n\nWhen is it?\nThe Last Friday of the month at Noon Eastern Time (subject to change based on the groups needs). \n\nWhere is it?\nThe discussion will take place online via zoom to connect you with CAIPs from across the country. \nWhy Join?\nThis is an opportunity to chat with fellow CAIPs from across the country and discuss topical issues relevant to the Analytics and Insights Industry. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nArticles for Discussion:\n\nThe 2024 election polls got close to the mark.

He will speak about public opinion polling in the current environment\, with a focus upon the fact that pollsters seemingly missed the mark in the recent US Presidential election. While Vice-President Harris was widely held by many polls to be ahead at the end of the campaign by perhaps two percentage points\, she ended up losing the popular vote by approximately three points on election day. The Discussion Club gathering will be asked to offer thoughts on the challenges of general public surveying in Canada\, both in terms of public opinion polling as well as survey research more generally in the marketing research and analytics sector. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Login to sign up for the Discussion Club\n				\n				\n					\n						\n							Username\n							\n						 \n						\n							Password\n							\n						 \n						Forgot your password? \n						\n							Login\n							\n						 \n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				↓

Gone are the days when individuals could operate as isolated islands of productivity. The challenges and opportunities of the modern business world are far too complex for any single group or individual to shoulder alone. \nEffective cross-team collaboration dismantles barriers\, facilitating a fluid exchange of ideas and information among different departments and individuals. A more collaborative approach not only enhances problem-solving capabilities and creativity but also cultivates an environment of inclusivity and mutual respect. By harnessing diverse skills and viewpoints\, research agencies\, regardless of their size\, can swiftly respond to market shifts\, uncover opportunities\, and sustain a competitive edge. \nGiselle Kovary will lead off this workshop by highlighting the best practices for increasing cross-team collaboration.  She will then facilitate group discussions where participating CEOs will be able to share their ideas on how agencies in our industry can improve performance and optimize innovation through collaboration. \n  \n1pm- 2pm The AI Imperative for Insight CEOs  \nArtificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to be a catalyst for unprecedented innovation in our industry.  In fact\, a survey of Canadian Insights Executives conducted by Leger for the CRIC earlier this year found that AI Implementation was a top priority amidst revenue concerns\, cost management\, and economic uncertainty.  In this session\, CRIC’s CEO will share key insights from this survey.  Jason Zweig\, Manager Partner and Vice President\, Canadian Viewpoint and Chair of the CRIC AI Committee will then highlight some of the initiatives of the CRIC AI Committee.  CEOs in attendance will then engage in breakout sessions to discuss and share how our industry must responsibly embrace AI. \n2pm – 3pm Addressing the Threat to Data Quality \nThe threats to data quality are global in nature and the solutions require a global effort.  That is why the Canadian Research Insights Council is part of the Global Data Quality Initiative (GDQ)\, working with leading associations around the globe to champion global data quality.  In this session\, we will explore efforts from Canada and other GDQ to address the threat.  The session will end with a breakout session to identify additional opportunities for Canada to contribute to addressing the threats to data quality. \n3pm – 3:15pm Afternoon Networking Break \n3:15pm – 4:15pm Advocacy Priorities \nFacilitated by Greg Jodouin\, President PACE Public Affairs & Community Engagement and John Tabone\, CEO of CRIC. \nIn this session\, Greg Jodouin and John Tabone will provide a brief update on key Government Relation and advocacy topics including an update on the status of the proposed new federal privacy and AI legislation\, call blocking/labeling\, gig economy legislation and more.  CEOs will then be invited to discuss and share their ideas on additional advocacy priorities from CRIC. \n4:15pm – 4:30pm – Concluding comments\n			\n				Register
