Now Burberry's chief executive he oversees every last detail of the label's output - every bag, every knit, every child-sized trenchcoat." He is 37, running a company with £1.2 Billion turnover, 6000 employees. If that wasn't enough he has also had tragedy in his personal life to deal with. Full article is here. Found it interesting with local references.
