🎙NEW EPISODE: Leading a 97-Year-Old Business Into the Future

What’s it like growing up and your family owning a nearly century-old company—and then becoming its CEO?

In this episode, I sit down with Gabriel Granatstein, CEO of Canada Tire Inc., a family-run business serving Canadians since 1928.

We dive into:

🔹 What it’s like to inherit a 4th-gen legacy

🔹 The future of Canada Tire and what’s next for the brand

🔹  How military service and law shaped his leadership style

🔹 The mindset shift required to modernize a traditional business

From legal halls to warehouses, this conversation covers what it really takes to lead with vision and execution in a legacy company.
