Business First Magazine

This issue’s Business First executive interviews are no different to those in the past, with teamwork being a top priority.

To create better teamwork and collaboration 1300 Australia CEO Gavin Scholes and CIO Shashi Mathew have acquired CallN, an intuitive speech analytic tool that provides customers with a way to improve the performance of their employees and at the same time gain a really deep insight into the voice of the customer.

Looking at leadership and teamwork, we can’t go past Mars Wrigley and the completion of the local integration of Mars Chocolate with the Wrigley Company. General Manager of Mars Wrigley says, “I can’t be successful on my own – I will only get success through other people succeeding, not by over managing them”.

Another organisation working for a specific team is the Accommodation Association of Australia. AAoA CEO Richard Munro has to deal with demand-drivers, employment issues, regulation and taxation in this very competitive industry.

We also look at gender diversity, cybersecurity, consumer trends, franchising and much more.

We also take the new Porsche Cayenne electric for a spin and treat yourself to a luxury resort called Trisara!! So put your feet up and enjoy the read.
