I had the pleasure of working with Martin on the Tata/Tesco JV in India. Martin is a seasoned Retail CEO with shrewd commercial acumen and exceptional ability to manage stakeholders. He clearly sets the direction for the company and a plan in the face of uncertainty. It’s quite visible that Martin as a business leader not only rigorously measures and manages all cultural elements that drive performance within his organisation, he also brings customer insights to build the right propositions for the customer. His retail know-how along with his leadership capability makes him an irresistible force in the retail sector. I recommend him strongly.
