Next to Me by David Jones
Having succeeded George Davies at NEXT plc in a blaze of publicity, he turned it around from nearly going broke to becoming the most talked about and successful retailers of the last 20 years. But it has not been without cost - he has battled through hardship, overcoming profound hearing loss and here he talks for the first time about his secret battle with Parkinson's Disease.
David is an exceptional manager, open-minded, a good listener and a great motivator of people-- Lord Wolfson of Sunningdale, ex Chairman of NEXT
David was plainly a great and inspirational CEO who created a phenomenal growth story. * The Sunday Telegraph *
He's a terrific man. He delivers. It's a fantastic track record, he's one of the greats of retail. -- Stuart Rose, Chief Executive Marks and Spencers
He’s a great guy. He’s the unsung hero of clothing – a quiet, very honest, genuine man. -- From the Foreword by Philip Green, Chairman of BHS
