Press Statement from Troy Bowker
Troy Bowker My discussion on Linkedin In with Sir Ian Taylor was never intended to involve rugby or my involvement with the Hurricanes as a shareholder and board director. However, it is clear that this has become the central focus for the media rather than the important issues around New
Get Woke, Go Broke: Footlong Version
You’d think corporations would have got the memo by now. Gilette, Nike, Coca-Cola. From the biggest (Disney) to small companies (Black Rifle Coffee, Handsome Her Cafe), and Hollywood (Ghostbusters 2016, Ocean’s 8). The lesson should be clear: Get Woke, Go Broke.
