Key Takeaways:

  • Companies that don’t go digital simply will not survive
  • What’s holding digital back? The people with an opposition to change. Individual “primal” survival always  trumps survival of the “herd.”
  • As a leader, you have to empower your people to change, and give them the tools to make it happen.
  • Digitized curated “in-store” experiences are the future of retail.

Craig’s Favorite Band or Musician: Miles Davis!
