The 'Queen Of Shops' joins Jo and Simon to chat about her new book.

The 'Queen Of Shops' chats about her new book 'Work Like A Woman - A Manifesto For Change', in which she encourages us to change the way we work by sharing her own experiences.

Mary Portas is one of the UK鈥檚 most high profile businesswomen. After making her name transforming Harvey Nichols into London鈥檚 sexiest fashion destination, Mary launched her own retail consultancy working for clients ranging from Louis Vuitton to Mercedes, started a career in TV, advised the government on the future of high streets, developed a fashion label and wrote two books. Her proudest achievement to date is the creation of 26 Mary鈥檚 Living and Giving shops for Save the Children. Today Mary鈥檚 agency Portas advises retail clients from every continent and the business鈥檚 success is built on an obsessive understanding of human and cultural behaviour.
