Most corporate owners see their franchises as cash cows, but not our guest this week. John knew Foot Solutions was a rising star full of potential. He's is determined to change the way his franchises operate. In this episode, John gives us examples of how he is changing his company's culture, a story of how failing can still be inspirational, and he tells us why custom orthotics aren't just for old people. Maybe even, Nicole.
Meet John Prothro. He calls himself a generalist and is an experienced executive with a background in Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) and International Business Leadership. Today he is the president and CEO of Foot Solutions; a global foot wellness retailer that specializes in custom orthotics and advanced footwear.
