The leadership read
A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Waitrose's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.
Market context: The wider read — a Talent Market Index of 103.7 (Hot), down 1.8 month-on-month — shows EMEA signal flow easing (-2.2pts).
Waitrose: 1 signal in the last 90 days; 0.1% of MitchelLake's EMEA signal flow; 2 tracked across 99 days.
