Question #1
As the North American market slows, is Daniellot’s instinct to double down on the commercial strategies that previously made him successful there, or does he have the strategic agility to pivot to a new playbook focused on supply chain efficiency and tariff mitigation?
Question #2
Given the strategic miscalculation and subsequent exit from the DTC market, will Daniellot prioritize defending core business margins or will he pursue another high-risk, transformational growth venture to offset slowing growth?
Question #3
