Big news in Canadian retail today…changes at the haute seat at Holt Renfrew.
Caryn Lerner is out as president and CEO.
Mark Derbyshire is in.
Derbyshire was formerly the chief talent scout for Holt Renfrew’s holding company.
So, an HR guy is now running HR.
Here’s hoping he can inject some new talent into Holt’s.
The retailer needs a bit of a makeover.
Lerner will stay on as an independent consultant with the holding company.
