EP 328 - Kate is a global thought-leader in business futurism and
CEO of GDR - Creative Intelligence which is renowned for blending
big picture context with insights from industry experts to
predict the impact of new technologies and consumer behaviours on
commerce.


In this extended episode, we discuss pressing retail and business
trends, the impact of global macro forces on retail, sustainable
practices, and the challenges of profitability amidst
de-globalisation.


Kate emphasises experiential retail, evolving consumer behaviour,
and the necessity for businesses to adapt to demographic and
economic shifts.


We also addresses the rise in retail theft and its economic
impacts, housing challenges, and the future role of empathic AI
