Retail on a Balance Beam

Robin Lewis and his expert guests give a candid, real-time assessment of the state of retail in Q3 2020.

Outspoken and opinionated, Chris Walton, Co-CEO and Editor-in-Chief Omni Talk and Jan Kniffen, CEO of J Rogers Kniffen World Wide join Robin in a wide-ranging conversation about the 2020 winners and losers; the ever-growing shadow of Amazon (with Walmart nipping at its heels); and what retail has to do to survive with disruptive supply chains and DTC; a playbook for the end of the year and predictions for 2021. Listen in and learn in a lively, no-holds barred discussion of retail’s current challenges as it walks on a precarious balance beam.
