In this episode we chat to Chris Wilesmith. Chris is currently the CEO of Mitre 10 New Zealand. Prior to this role he was the Managing Director of the Auto Division at Super Retail Group, where he lead the Super Cheap Auto business. Outside of business Chris is a mountain climber, who has attempted to summit Everest three times in the last couple of years. That sheer level of determination, as well as his compassion and understanding is evident in this talk. During our 45 minutes together we talk about: 

• The 'New Normal' in Retail - including the rise of online and DIY;
• The importance of culture and people;
• How we need to be looking for insight at times like this; 
• Finally, he speaks to the topic of courage and now is the time to take that leap...if there ever was a time.
