A. Lord Wootten, Chairman, Unimarket
Lord Wootten has recently returned to Unimarket, the large retail food chain, after a 20- year absence. Whilst away, he held a variety of posts in the Conservative Party including that of Chief of Staff to the British Minister for six years, where his skills as an effective public speaker won him great respect. He then returned to the industry as one of the two architects behind the dramatic revival of the Remco supermarket chain. His comprehensive and varied experience of the retail food sector will make e: huge impact on Unimarket and he has already embarked on an ambitious policy of major acquisitions.
B. Steven Waugh, Chief Executive Officer, DigiCom
Steven Waugh, the driving force behind DigiCom for over 25 years, retires this year. Known for his quick decision-making, he is seen as one of the most outspoken and ruthless operators in the world of business. These qualities have often made life difficult for DigiCom competitors, who have regularly been faced with bitter price wars and innovative promotional campaigns, often masterminded by the CEO himself. Born in Queensland, Waugh first cut his teeth on Australia’s Channel 9 before entering broadcasting in Britain. Never a great believer in political correctness, he is famous for spending his time aboard his luxury cruiser indulging in gourmet food and champagne.
C. Mark Boucher, Chairman, Gladstone
Mark Boucher, 53, chairs Gladstone, the base-metals group recently demerged from Corgen of South Africa and floated in Amsterdam. Since the breakaway, Gladstone’s operating profit has grown to $ 92m, even though experts have described the company as overstaffed and inefficient. Boucher is a reserved man who is reluctant toad dress large meetings but reveals, when pressed, a dry sense of humor. He has had an unusual career path, including a spell working for the North American Space Agency, followed by a stint running a satellite TV station.
D. Erik Johanssen, Chief Executive, MorgenReynolds
MorgenReynolds’ CEO Erik Johanssen admits to crying occasionally and says he is not the tough hard-nosed businessman that people expect when they meet him. He is, however, universally regarded as a shrewd politician within the industry. A self-styled company man, the chain-smoking 55-year-old Johanssen has been with Morgen for over 20 years. Since Morgen took over the innovative but under-performing Reynolds, Johanssen has streamlined the business radically, axing half of Reynolds’ top managers. Jonanssen lives modestly in Stockholm and travels to work by underground.
E. Joe Anderson, Chief Executive, Dayton International Hotels
Joe Anderson joined the imaginative Seattle-based Foyles restaurant chain after graduating in 1963. He worked his way up through the ranks, performing a variety of different roles, eventually becoming the Managing Director in 1976 and joining the parent company’s executive board in 1980. In 1994 he became CEO and President of the group’s Dayton activities and reduced the group’s debts by disposing of several properties and a chain of beauty salons. His next project is likely to be the search for strategic alliances with major European hotel chains.
He does not enjoy making presentations and speeches.
