There are some people who always need to be right. In their minds there is always a winner and there is always a loser. Deep down, very few of us like these people. And yet, we often work for them, we work with them, and if we’re honest, we may even be one of them.
Hamish Thomson is a CEO, board and startup adviser, consultant, speaker and investor. A New Zealander from birth, he has been a successful CEO/Regional President and Global Brand head for Mars Incorporated (UK, Australia and Chicago), a senior marketing and sales lead for Reebok International (England and the Netherlands) and a fresh-faced account executive in the London advertising scene.
