Description
OPI’s first chance to speak with incoming ISG CEO James Rodgers. It’s all change at the top of ISG, the biggest business products dealer group in the US, with long-time CEO Mike Gentile set to retire in a few weeks’ time. Succeeding him is 44-year-old James Rodgers, who joins the organisation following a successful career charging up through the ranks in both the office and facilities products distribution channels. In a visit to the ISG head office near Chicago (IL), OPI News Editor Andy Braithwaite had the opportunity to speak to Rodgers and ask him for his early impressions of the group and his thoughts on the independent dealer channel.   Episode recorded and edited by Andy BraithwaiteMusic by:Extreme Energy by MusicToday80: https://soundcloud.com/musictoday80/r...Attribution 3.0 Unported (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...Music provided by Free Vibes: https://goo.gl/NkGhTg
