    THE RATNER STORY WITH JONATHAN RATNER

    In this podcast I interview Jonathan Ratner, cousin of Gerald Ratner, who gives us an incredible insight into the entire Ratner saga. Jonathan helps shed light on lessons to be learned from the mistakes made during the course of the rise and fall of the Ratner empire. Why did Gerald Ratner say what he said? Was his unforgiveable comment the only reason for the downfall of the business? Tune in and find out the story behind the story.

    MASSIMO MACCHI - A LESSON IN BIG BRAND THINKING

    In this podcast I interview Massimo Macchi, who was at a point Executive Vice President of Bulgari of Jewellery, Watches and Accessories Sales Division worldwide and helped list Bulgari on the stock exchange in the US. In addition Massimo was also Vice President of Gucci Group as well as having worked for Playtex, American Express & Procter & Gamble. So it can be safe to say Massimo is no stranger to Big Brands. Massimo imparts invaluable knowledge on the thinking behind big brands, how the landscape of promoting and advertising has changed and the mindset & strategies required to run a brand, especially if you're a small player trying to get in.
