"we make more margin selling refurbished" - CEO of Currys plc I hugely rate Alex Baldock for saying the quiet bit out loud. I'm often faced with the same question when presenting Supercycle... "will it cannibalise my sales" My answer usually starts with a deep breath, followed by: "Yes. And No. It depends" ... then ... 10 minutes of navigating the nuances of circular commerce. Ultimately it usually ends with the merchant saying (word for word) what Alex says next... "we’d much rather cannibalise ourselves than have somebody else do it to us” Alex Baldock, CEO of Currys plc I wonder if Currys is one of the many on Salesforce Commerce quietly migrating to Shopify for Enterprise? 🙄... we'll be here waiting to make rental and resale seamless if/when you do!

Opening today's Shoptalk conference in Barcelona, our CEO Alex Baldock covered all things services, circularity, AI and beyond in an exclusive interview with Shoptalk's Head of Content Joe Laszlo 🎤 Alex shared #retail insights on: 🌍 Can purpose and profit go hand in hand 💜 How to create loyal customers  🛒 What are the key growth areas to look out for in retail Watch the sneak peek below 👀

Justin Cody Worden: "I went outside the box and brought in an ACTUAL motivational speaker." 🤣 Best line of the night from the SMTA Austin Chapter Kickoff night. Justin, you're a rockstar and SMTA couldn't have asked for a better President to lead the chapter. It took courage to bring in an Empathy Coach to motivate a group of engineers, but it hit home! If it feels like your organization is spinning and you're losing your best people, let's talk, because that's what I'll coach your leaders to do, bring empathy with intention into every challenging conversation they face. And it won't feel soft. Your bottom line can't afford to keep bleeding great talent. Just know this: Empathy isn't a soft skill. It's the glue that's going to give your most productive employees a voice and one that's going to keep them on your payroll. #empathywithintention #courageousleadership #skillbuilding #retention #keynotespeaker #empathycoach Susan Child Sean McMillen Brad Pagano Corina I.

Honoring Black Innovators and Leaders in Transportation I would like to introduce Meredith C. Gourdine. Gourdine is best known for his invention of various electrostatic precipitator systems, including "Incineraid," which helps to remove smoke from burning buildings, and a method of removing fog from airport runways. Gourdine also invented the exhaust purification system for automobiles in 1967, now known as the Catalytic Converter. The Inspiration: For over thirty years, Meredith C. Gourdine was a pioneer researcher and inventor in the field of electrogasdynamics. The How: Gourdine was one of the first, and remains one of the most respected scientists in electrogasdynamics, which is the generation of energy from the motion of gas molecules that have been ionized (electrically charged) under high pressure. Gourdine's specialty was to invent very practical applications for this rather abstruse procedure. Gourdine was also granted patents for applications of electrogasdynamics to circuit breakers, acoustic imaging, air monitors, and coating systems, as well as the Focus Flow Heat Sink, which is used to cool computer chips. He earned over 30 U.S. patents throughout the course of his life. Gourdine also focused his efforts on heating and cooling systems based on the conversion and transfer of thermal energy, with patents granted from 1989 to 1996. In 1994, he was inducted into the Engineering and Science Hall of Fame. #freight #experience #analytics #supplychain #supplychainmanagement #supplychainsolutions #logisticscompany #logistics #shippers #imports #everythingfreight #smallbusiness #environmentalsustainability #environmentallyfriendly #sustainability #oceanfreight #refrigerated #warehousing #drayage #intermodal #oceanfreight #blackhistory
