Podcast: Cinema’s recovery and the need for renewed DEI efforts — with Pearl & Dean’s Charlene Williams
The Media Leader Podcast

At The Year Ahead 2024, Charlene Williams, Pearl & Dean’s group senior operations and business analyst, and member of our Future 100 Club, pleaded with industry leaders to renew their focus and care towards diversity, equity and inclusion. Was the message received?

Williams discusses this on the podcast this week alongside host Jack Benjamin and special guest Sam Tidmarsh, Adwanted Events’ head of conference production.

The trio also delved into cinema’s road to recovery after the Covid-19 pandemic, how advertisers are leaning in to in-person events and experiences, and whether stay-at-home habits die hard when it comes to movies.
