It's Time to Get Serious About Transformation. Get Ready for Season 7 of the Remarkable Retail Podcast

This is Steve Dennis, innovation & strategy consultant, keynote speaker and best-selling author of Remarkable Retail: How to Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption.

Succession patriarch Logan Roy reminds us that it's one thing to be loved. It's another thing to get serious about the harsh realities we often face and to do the work we must to transform at the speed of disruption. In an era of unrelenting change and increasingly volatile market conditions to be anything less than remarkable is to risk irrelevance.

So join me and my co-host Michael LeBlanc every week as we challenge the status quo, dissect the latest news and trends, and speak with the retail industry leaders who are leaping into a more remarkable future.

Listeners worldwide have made us the retail industry's top-rated and top-listened to independent podcast. This season we'll continue with our unique take on retail’s most important news and showcasing those senior retail executives and industry thought-leaders that are shaping the future of modern retail, while also previewing material from Steve's forthcoming new book.

So be sure to follow us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you enjoy your podcasts today and brace yourself for a steady stream of wisdom, straight talk and lively conversation.

Season 7 launches on July 25th, and we can't wait for you to join us!
