What: Sharon White, Chairman of John Lewis Partnership, narrowly won the support of staff in a confidence vote.
Why it is important: While White isn’t in imminent danger of losing her job, the results indicate that she remains under pressure to improve the retailer’s performance.
The council didn’t support last year’s performance, where it reported a full-year loss and no bonus, but voted in support of the chairman to progress the partnership in relation to its purpose, principles, and rules.
