Face à l'essor fulgurant de l'ultra fast fashion incarnée par des plateformes comme Shein et Temu, la France tente de reprendre la main avec un cadre législatif inédit. Dans cet épisode, Yann Rivoallan, président de la Fédération Française du Prêt-à-Porter Féminin, décrypte avec lucidité et engagement les rouages d'un modèle qui bouleverse toute l'industrie de la mode : production algorithmique, copie à grande échelle, micro-lots, logistique dématérialisée, et dumping fiscal massif.Entrepreneur, ancien fondateur de The Other Store, pionnier du e-commerce de mode et désormais voix incontournable dans le débat public, Yann Rivoallan revient également sur son parcours, son engagement sociétal, et les combats qu'il mène aujourd'hui pour défendre la création, l'emploi et la durabilité dans la mode.Au fil de notre conversation, nous explorons :les différences entre fast fashion et ultra fast fashion ;le rôle central de l'intelligence artificielle dans le modèle Shein ;les impacts sociaux, environnementaux et culturels de cette production accélérée ;les limites des systèmes de régulation actuels ;et les enjeux législatifs autour de la loi française récemment votée et en cours d'évaluation au niveau européen.Yann détaille également les stratégies de lobbying à l'œuvre, les difficultés de contrôle de la supply chain ultra-décentralisée, ainsi que l'addiction croissante des consommateurs à ces plateformes aux mécanismes proches des réseaux sociaux.Un épisode sans détour pour mieux comprendre les tensions à l'œuvre dans la mode contemporaine, entre innovation technologique et urgence climatique, entre tentation du low cost et responsabilité collective. Yann y défend une vision offensive et lucide : informer, réguler, mais aussi valoriser les alternatives comme la seconde main, l'upcycling ou le soutien aux marques locales.

On April 11th, 2025, our world was flipped upside down. Our previous company shut down without a warning, and we lost our business. So did everyone who was part of the company. But we didn't lose our brand. We didn't lose our principles. We didn't lose our motivation. So we started all over again. Here's the biggest takeaways from this whole situation.

Was hat Tinder mit Social Media (Marketing) zu tun? Eine ganze Menge. Denn wenn du bei Tinder jemanden kennenlernst, der dich zwar „ganz nett“ findet, aber den nächsten Schritt nicht machen will, dann wird es niemals das 3. Date geben.

Nadine Quosdorf, Ansprechpartnerin der Messe, hat Sophie eingeladen, auf dem Event das Thema Corporate Influencer zu bespielen und Sophie hat direkt den ganzen Club mitgebracht. Winfried Ebner, Alexander Luyken, Judith Fauser und Anja Schöne waren mit am Start. Gemeinsam haben die fünf eine Podcastfolge aufgenommen, den Raum für Austausch beim Community-Treffen geöffnet und den Tag mit einem starken Panel auf der Mainstage abgeschlossen. Die drei wichtigsten Erkenntnisse Corporate Influencing braucht Strategie und Haltung. Sichtbarkeit allein reicht nicht – entscheidend ist die strategische Ausrichtung und die Frage nach dem persönlichen „Why“. (Judith Fauser) Corporate Influencing ist Teil eines kulturellen Transformationsprozesses. Es verändert nicht nur externe Wahrnehmung, sondern wirkt tief in die Organisation hinein – hin zu mehr Offenheit und Zusammenarbeit. (Alexander Luyken) Nicht alle müssen laut sein – aber alle können relevant sein. Fachliche Expertise und Authentizität sind wichtiger als Rampenlicht. (Anja Schöne) Die drei größten "Wins" oder positiven Effekte Nachhaltiger Kulturwandel durch Sichtbarkeit. Die Telekom hat sich durch Corporate Influencing zur modernen, „lovable“ Marke gewandelt. (Alexander Luyken) Fachexpertise wird endlich sichtbar. Menschen mit Know-how bekommen Reichweite – ohne Marketingfilter. (Anja Schöne) Neue Kommunikationsformate aktivieren stille Expert*innen. Audioformate wie Podcasts machen komplexe Themen zugänglich – auch für introvertiertere Kolleg*innen. (Judith Fauser) Drei Gefahren oder Risiken Verwechslung mit klassischen Influencern. Intern gibt es Vorurteile („Influencer = unglaubwürdig“) – das erschwert den Start. (Alexander Luyken) Initialaufwand wird unterschätzt. Ohne konsequentes Community-Management laufen Programme schnell ins Leere. (Anja Schöne) Komplexität fachlicher Inhalte kann zur Kommunikationshürde werden. Es braucht Übersetzungshilfe – sonst bleibt Expertise intern hängen. (Anja Schöne) Drei typische Fehler, die man vermeiden sollte Verkaufen statt zuhören. Social Selling funktioniert nur, wenn echtes Interesse am Gegenüber da ist – nicht über Direktnachrichten und Verkaufsdruck. (Judith Fauser) Programme ohne Weiterentwicklung verlieren an Energie. Der Bedarf an Impulsen, Austausch und neuen Formaten bleibt dauerhaft bestehen. (Anja Schöne) Den Community-Gedanken durch Hierarchie ausbremsen. Ein „Head of“ ist nicht zwingend nötig – es braucht eher eine moderierende, unterstützende Rolle im Sinne eines Feel-Good-Managers. (Anja Schöne) Wann sprachen wir über was (mit Sprungmarken): (00:17:38) Warum sind alle Mitarbeitenden potenzielle Corporate Influencer? – Judith Fauser (00:18:58) Wie verhindert Bechtle „Sales-Pfosten“ im Social Selling? – Judith Fauser (00:20:22) Was steckt hinter Bechtles Social Media Readiness Programm? – Judith Fauser (00:23:13) Warum eignen sich Podcasts besonders für vertriebsnahe Corporate Influencer? – Judith Fauser (00:30:56) Wie entstand das Corporate Influencer Programm bei der Telekom? – Alexander Luyken (00:31:52) Welche Rolle spielt Offenheit im Austausch mit anderen Unternehmen? – Alexander Luyken (00:34:57) Wie hat das Programm zum Kulturwandel bei der Telekom beigetragen? – Alexander Luyken (00:36:34) Warum wirkt Corporate Influencing auch stark nach innen? – Alexander Luyken (00:41:34) Wie organisiert die LV 1871 ihre Corporate Influencer Community intern? – Anja Schöne (00:45:53) Warum sind Vielfalt und Fachkompetenz zentrale Erfolgsfaktoren? – Anja Schöne Links aus der Episode: Sophie Rickmann auf LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophierickmann/ Winfried Ebner auf LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/winfried-ebner/ Alexander Luyken von der Deutschen Telekom https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexander-luyken/ Anja Schöne von KV 1871 https://www.linkedin.com/in/anjaschoene/ Judith Helene Fauser Bechtle https://www.linkedin.com/in/judith-helene-fauser/  Corporate Influencer Club auf LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/groups/12

Distribution alimentaire : ce que nous apprennent les signaux faiblesLa distribution alimentaire change. Lentement, parfois à bas bruit, mais profondément.À travers douze épisodes du podcast, j'ai échangé avec des dirigeants de grands groupes, de startups, de plateformes logistiques ou d'acteurs de la transition alimentaire. Chacun d'eux a livré une part du puzzle. Et ensemble, leurs paroles dessinent une nouvelle carte du commerce alimentaire en France.Digitalisation, logistique urbaine, maîtrise de la donnée, quête de sens, réinvention de la proximité… autant de mutations qui transforment la façon dont nous produisons, distribuons et consommons l'alimentaire.Dans cet épisode solo, je vous propose une lecture transversale de ces évolutions. Une mise en perspective de ce que les signaux faibles racontent déjà du paysage de demain.Ce n'est pas une synthèse, mais une analyse. Un récit structuré autour de cinq grands axes, enrichi par les paroles de celles et ceux qui font bouger les lignes.Que l'on soit distributeur, industriel, logisticien, startup ou simplement curieux de ces transformations, cet épisode est une invitation à penser le commerce autrement. À décrypter, ensemble, ce que ces mutations impliquent. Et à questionner ce que la distribution alimentaire veut ou devra devenir.
