CX-Spotlight

Conversations in Isolation is a series of podcasts from CX spotlight where Steve Nuttall, Director of Fifth Quadrant, sits down for an honest conversation with business leaders about the rapid changes happening in the world during the COVID-19 crisis... from the safety of isolation. Our Seventh Episode Features Gillian Stapleton, CEO of Direct Selling Australia. DSA is the industry body representing direct selling companies in Australia, a retail channel that supplies products from non-fixed locations and attracts over 400,000 entrepreneurs in Australia. I’ve really been looking forward to this conversation, to understand how COVID-19 has impacted the direct selling business model and what the future looks like for DSA’s members. We talk about how Gill is guiding the Association and the industry through the current pandemic and into a new phase of growth as well as her passion for running marathons: 11 completed in 10 years including the now famous 2013 Boston Marathon.
