In this xChange Paul Skinner, founder of MarketingKind, will interview David Boynton, former global CEO of The Body Shop, to explore how purposeful enterprise can prevail in turbulent times. And you will have the chance to put your questions to David directly in the live Q&A.

David Boynton is a proven global leader of purpose-driven, sustainable businesses. He was until recently the Chief Executive of iconic British brand The Body Shop, where he was responsible for the company’s business strategy and triple bottom line growth in almost 3000 stores, in more than 75 markets worldwide. He took the role in December 2017 following the acquisition of The Body Shop by Brazil’s best known beauty brand and sustainability leader, Natura Cosmeticos.

He previously held senior positions at a number of major high-street retailers and most recently was CEO of menswear company Charles Tyrwhitt. Prior to that he spent ten years at French beauty brand L’Occitane, where he was based in the US and part of a small global leadership group that took the company from 200m to over 1.2bn euro during that period. He has also held a number of senior management roles with A.S. Watson in Asia and supermarket group Safeway Plc in the UK.

He is known for creating challenging but supportive environments where talent can develop and flourish and for being a thought leader on sustainable brands and a keynote speaker at other major conferences around the world.
