CEO of the Folio Society, Joanna Reynolds

We hear how the retail executive turned a struggling book club into a profitable business that could compete in the digital age.

We meet retail turnaround expert Joanna Reynolds, the woman behind the revival of the Folio Society, one of Britain鈥檚 oldest publishing houses.

Ten years ago, the company was losing money and facing an existential threat from the digital revolution.

Joanna explains how she transformed the business from a failing book club to a profitable, employee-owned publisher.
