“The John Lewis Partnership is like a Curate’s egg, both good and bad. Some of their strengths can be weaknesses. For example, one of the enormous strengths is its history, the values, model and philosophy but much of the future of the Partnership will be defined by how it deals with those strengths in this current environment. Can it answer these threats without losing what it stands for?”
