WHO IS RENA GRANOFSKY?

Rena Granofsky, President of RIT Experts, founded the company to help retailers survive and thrive through the educated use of technology.

With over twenty-five years in retail technology, Rena has worked all sides of the four legged stool: as a retailer, technology vendor, consultant, and research analyst. In her role as project manager at STS Systems (now NSB; www.nsbgroup.com), she optimized business processes and led system implementations at retailers of all sizes across North America. As a management consultant at Canadian Tire, a leading Canadian retailer with more than 450 stores offering automotive, sports and leisure and home products, she developed IT strategic plans for the Merchandising and Advertising departments.

For seven years she led the retail technology consulting practice at J.C. Williams Group, an internationally renowned retail consulting firm, and delivered holistic solutions to clients of all sizes across North America. And most recently she led the research into the retail sector impact, as part of the private Think Tank on IT & Competitive Advantage, spearheaded by the prodigious Thought Leader Don Tapscott of New Paradigm Learning Corporation.
