  Chris,
• 0:58
  what
• 0:59
  else
• 0:59
  can
• 0:59
  you
• 0:59
  say
• 0:59
  about
• 1:00
  Corso,
• 1:01
  who
• 1:01
  I
• 1:01
  will
• 1:01
  caveat
• 1:02
  is
• 1:02
  also
• 1:02
  a
• 1:03
  partner
• 1:03
  and
• 1:03
  sponsor
• 1:04
  of
• 1:04
  the
• 1:04
  show
• 1:04
  and
• 1:04
  somebody
• 1:05
  that
• 1:05
  we've
• 1:05
  long,
• 1:06
  long
• 1:07
  been
• 1:07
  watching.
• 1:07
  So
• 1:08
  this
• 1:08
  is
• 1:08
  exciting
• 1:08
  news
• 1:09
  for
• 1:09
  us.
• 1:09
  But
• 1:10
  what
• 1:10
  can
• 1:10
  you
• 1:10
  say
• 1:10
  about
• 1:10
  Corso
• 1:11
  that
• 1:11
  we
• 1:11
  haven't
• 1:11
  already
• 1:12
  said?
• 1:12
  Yeah,
• 1:13
  that's
• 1:13
  a
• 1:13
  good
• 1:13
  way
• 1:13
  to
• 1:13
  put
• 1:13
  the
• 1:13
  question,
• 1:14
  Ed.
• 1:15
  Not
• 1:16
  all
• 1:16
  that
• 1:16
  much
• 1:16
  if
• 1:16
  you're
• 1:17
  a
• 1:17
  loyal
• 1:17
  fan
• 1:17
  of
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  show,
• 1:18
  but
• 1:18
  for
• 1:18
  that
• 1:18
  reason
• 1:18
  we've
• 1:19
  got
• 1:19
  a
• 1:19
  lot
• 1:19
  of
• 1:19
  new
• 1:19
  fans
• 1:20
  each
• 1:20
  and
• 1:20
  every
• 1:20
  week
• 1:20
  too.
• 1:20
  So
• 1:21
  I
• 1:21
  think
• 1:21
  it's
• 1:21
  important
• 1:21
  to
• 1:22
  reiterate
• 1:23
  the
• 1:23
  importance
• 1:23
  of
• 1:23
  this
• 1:24
  announcement.
• 1:24
  And
• 1:25
  you
• 1:25
  know,
• 1:25
  like
• 1:25
  you
• 1:25
  said,
• 1:25
  they've
• 1:26
  been
• 1:26
  a
• 1:26
  sponsor,
• 1:26
  but
• 1:26
  the
• 1:26
  reason
• 1:27
  they've
• 1:27
  been
• 1:27
  a
• 1:27
  sponsor
• 1:27
  is,
• 1:28
  you
• 1:28
  know,
• 1:28
  I
• 1:28
  met
• 1:28
  their
• 1:28
  CFO
• 1:29
  Phil
• 1:29
  Thorne
• 1:30
  back
• 1:30
  in
• 1:30
  2020
• 1:31
  when
• 1:31
  he
• 1:31
  reached
• 1:31
  out
• 1:31
  to
• 1:32
  me
• 1:32
  and
• 1:32
  I
• 1:32
  just,
• 1:32
  I
• 1:33
  fell
• 1:33
  in
• 1:33
  love
• 1:33
  with
• 1:34
  conceptually
• 1:34
  what
• 1:34
  they
• 1:35
  were
• 1:35
  trying
• 1:35
  to
• 1:35
  do.
• 1:35
  The
• 1:36
  tech
• 1:36
  is,
• 1:36
  the
• 1:37
  tech
• 1:37
  is
• 1:37
  smart,
• 1:38
  it's
• 1:38
  low
• 1:38
  lift,
• 1:39
  it
• 1:39
  pays
• 1:39
  back
• 1:39
  immediately,
• 1:40
  both
• 1:40
  financially
• 1:41
  but
• 1:41
  most
• 1:41
  importantly
• 1:42
  for
• 1:42
  your
• 1:43
  store
• 1:43
  employees
• 1:43
  as
• 1:44
  well,
• 1:44
  because
• 1:44
  store
• 1:45
  teams
• 1:45
  want
• 1:45
  tools
• 1:46
  to
• 1:46
  help
• 1:47
  them
• 1:47
  do
• 1:47
  their
• 1:47
  jobs
• 1:48
  better
• 1:48
  instead
• 1:48
  of
• 1:48
  just
• 1:49
  being
• 1:49
  handed
• 1:49
  down
• 1:50
  to
• 1:50
  to
• 1:50
  do
• 1:51
  lists
• 1:51
  from
• 1:51
  headquarters,
• 1:51
  which
• 1:52
  oftentimes
• 1:52
  we
• 1:52
  don't
• 1:52
  even
• 1:53
  know
• 1:53
  if
• 1:53
  those
• 1:53
  to
• 1:54
  do
• 1:54
  lists
• 1:54
  are
• 1:54
  valuable.
• 1:55
  You
• 1:55
  know,
• 1:55
  we
• 1:55
  had
• 1:55
  Julian
• 1:56
  Mills,
• 1:56
  the
• 1:57
  CEO,
• 1:57
  of
• 1:57
  course,
• 1:57
  so
• 1:58
  on
• 1:58
  our
• 1:58
  show
• 1:59
  at
• 1:59
  NRF
• 2:00
  talking
• 2:00
  about
• 2:00
  that
• 2:00
  very
• 2:01
  thing.
• 2:01
  So
• 2:01
  I've
• 2:02
  always
• 2:02
  said
• 2:02
  leadership.
• 2:03
  Leadership
• 2:04
  to
• 2:04
  me
• 2:04
  comes
• 2:04
  down
• 2:04
  to
• 2:05
  three
• 2:05
  things.
• 2:05
  As
• 2:05
  a
• 2:05
  leader,
• 2:06
  you've
• 2:06
  got
• 2:06
  to
• 2:06
  instill
• 2:06
  three
• 2:06
  things
• 2:07
  in
• 2:07
  your
• 2:07
  employees.
• 2:08
  You've
• 2:08
  got
• 2:08
  to
• 2:08
  give
• 2:08
  them
• 2:08
  complexity.
• 2:09
  So
• 2:09
  you
• 2:09
  have
• 2:09
  to
• 2:10
  make
• 2:10
  their
• 2:10
  jobs
• 2:10
  interesting.
• 2:11
  That's
• 2:11
  what
• 2:11
  that
• 2:11
  means.
• 2:11
  The
• 2:12
  second
• 2:12
  thing
• 2:12
  is
• 2:12
  you
• 2:12
  have
• 2:12
  to
• 2:13
  give
• 2:13
  them
• 2:13
  autonomy.
• 2:13
  Like
• 2:14
  do
• 2:14
  they
• 2:14
  feel
• 2:14
  like
• 2:15
  they're
• 2:15
  in
• 2:15
  control
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  their
• 2:16
  own
• 2:16
  area
• 2:16
  of
• 2:16
  responsibility?
• 2:17
  And
• 2:17
  third,
• 2:17
  and
• 2:18
  finally
• 2:18
  attachment.
• 2:19
  Do
• 2:19
  they
• 2:19
  care
• 2:20
  about
• 2:20
  what
• 2:20
  they
• 2:20
  do.
• 2:21
  Do
• 2:21
  they
• 2:21
  have
• 2:21
  inherent
• 2:22
  like
• 2:22
  care
• 2:22
  and
• 2:22
  concern
• 2:23
  about
• 2:23
  their
• 2:23
  performance.
• 2:25
  Those
• 2:25
  three
• 2:25
  things,
• 2:25
  complexity,
• 2:26
  autonomy
• 2:27
  and
• 2:27
  attachment.
• 2:28
  Corso
• 2:29
  tech
• 2:30
  drives
• 2:30
  efficiency
• 2:31
  while
• 2:31
  also
• 2:31
  giving
• 2:32
  all
• 2:32
  of
• 2:32
  those
• 2:32
  three
• 2:33
  things
• 2:33
  and
• 2:33
  making
• 2:34
  it
• 2:34
  easier
• 2:34
  for
• 2:34
  the
• 2:34
  leaders
• 2:35
  to
• 2:35
  manage
• 2:35
  their
• 2:35
  teams
• 2:36
  and
• 2:36
  make
• 2:36
  their
• 2:36
  employees
• 2:37
  happier.
• 2:37
  So
• 2:37
  that's
• 2:37
  why
• 2:37
  I
• 2:38
  love
• 2:38
  it.
• 2:38
  Yeah,
• 2:39
  I
• 2:39
  mean
• 2:39
  I
• 2:39
  think
• 2:40
  the
• 2:40
  other
• 2:40
  thing
• 2:40
  to
• 2:40
  call
• 2:41
  out
• 2:41
  like
• 2:41
  Corso
• 2:42
  was
• 2:42
  certainly
• 2:43
  one
• 2:43
  of
• 2:43
  the
• 2:43
  darlings
• 2:44
  of
• 2:44
  this
• 2:44
  nrf.
• 2:44
  I
• 2:45
  mean
• 2:45
  I
• 2:45
  felt
• 2:45
  like
• 2:45
  we
• 2:45
  were,
• 2:46
  they
• 2:46
  were
• 2:46
  in
• 2:46
  conversations
• 2:47
  with
• 2:47
  people,
• 2:48
  they
• 2:48
  were
• 2:48
  in
• 2:49
  the
• 2:49
  Microsoft
• 2:49
  booth.
• 2:50
  You
• 2:50
  know,
• 2:50
  we
• 2:50
  had
• 2:51
  them
• 2:51
  on
• 2:51
  with
• 2:51
  Fusion.
• 2:53
  And
• 2:53
  I
• 2:53
  think
• 2:53
  it
• 2:53
  gets
• 2:54
  back
• 2:54
  to
• 2:54
  what
• 2:54
  we
• 2:54
  were
• 2:54
  talking
• 2:55
  about
• 2:55
  the
• 2:55
  very
• 2:55
  beginning
• 2:56
  is
• 2:57
  now
• 2:57
  that
• 2:57
  AI
• 2:58
  is
• 2:58
  being
• 2:58
  deployed
• 2:59
  operationally
• 3:00
  across
• 3:00
  multiple
• 3:01
  retail
• 3:01
  organizations.
• 3:02
  What
• 3:02
  do
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  now
• 3:03
  have
• 3:03
  the
• 3:04
  power
• 3:04
  to
• 3:04
  do?
• 3:05
  And
• 3:05
  I
• 3:05
  think
• 3:05
  that
• 3:05
  now
• 3:06
  Corso
• 3:06
  is
• 3:06
  able
• 3:07
  to
• 3:07
  plug
• 3:08
  into
• 3:09
  a
• 3:09
  lot
• 3:09
  of
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  other
• 3:10
  operating
• 3:10
  systems
• 3:12
  that
• 3:12
  are
• 3:12
  already
• 3:13
  in
• 3:13
  stores
• 3:14
  that
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  know,
• 3:14
  are
• 3:15
  being
• 3:16
  superpowered
• 3:16
  by
• 3:16
  AI
• 3:17
  to
• 3:17
  be
• 3:17
  able
• 3:17
  to
• 3:18
  process
• 3:18
  data
• 3:18
  and
• 3:19
  now
• 3:19
  give
• 3:19
  those
• 3:20
  very
• 3:20
  important
• 3:21
  and
• 3:21
  ROI
• 3:22
  producing,
• 3:24
  producing
• 3:25
  activities
• 3:26
  for
• 3:27
  the
• 3:27
  store
• 3:27
  level
• 3:28
  employees.
• 3:29
  I
• 3:29
  think
• 3:29
  one
• 3:30
  other
• 3:30
  thing
• 3:31
  that
• 3:31
  I
• 3:32
  find
• 3:32
  really
• 3:33
  interesting
• 3:33
  and
• 3:34
  especially
• 3:34
  about
• 3:34
  this
• 3:34
  being
• 3:35
  a
• 3:35
  European,
• 3:35
  you
• 3:36
  know,
• 3:36
  all
• 3:36
  over

• 3:37
  especially
• 3:37
  in
• 3:37
  Europe,
• 3:38
  we
• 3:38
  had
• 3:38
  Jacob
• 3:39
  on
• 3:39
  the
• 3:39
  CEO
• 3:40
  of
• 3:40
  Strongpoint
• 3:40
  yesterday.
• 3:41
  He
• 3:41
  was
• 3:41
  talking
• 3:41
  about
• 3:41
  how
• 3:42
  if
• 3:42
  you
• 3:42
  can
• 3:43
  do
• 3:43
  this
• 3:43
  in
• 3:44
  areas
• 3:45
  like
• 3:45
  Europe,
• 3:46
  like
• 3:46
  the
• 3:46
  Nordic
• 3:47
  countries,
• 3:48
  where
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  minimum
• 3:50
  wage
• 3:50
  is
• 3:50
  so
• 3:50
  high
• 3:51
  and
• 3:51
  you
• 3:51
  are
• 3:52
  limited
• 3:52
  to
• 3:52
  how
• 3:53
  much
• 3:53
  you
• 3:53
  can
• 3:53
  do
• 3:53
  and
• 3:54
  how
• 3:54
  much
• 3:54
  you
• 3:54
  can
• 3:55
  pay
• 3:55
  for
• 3:55
  employees
• 3:55
  to
• 3:56
  be
• 3:56
  in
• 3:56
  store,
• 3:57
  if
• 3:57
  you
• 3:57
  have
• 3:57
  something
• 3:58
  like
• 3:58
  Corsa
• 3:59
  deployed,
• 3:59
  I
• 3:59
  think
• 4:00
  now
• 4:00
  you're
• 4:00
  looking
• 4:00
  at
• 4:01
  having
• 4:01
  in
• 4:02
  that,
• 4:02
  you
• 4:02
  know,
• 4:02
  with
• 4:03
  limited
• 4:03
  employees,
• 4:03
  with
• 4:04
  limited
• 4:04
  amounts
• 4:05
  of
• 4:05
  time,
• 4:05
  the
• 4:05
  amount
• 4:06
  of
• 4:06
  things
• 4:06
  that
• 4:06
  they
• 4:07
  will
• 4:07
  be
• 4:07
  able
• 4:07
  to
• 4:07
  get
• 4:07
  done
• 4:08
  and
• 4:08
  that
• 4:08
  you'll
• 4:09
  be
• 4:09
  able
• 4:09
  to
• 4:09
  accomplish
• 4:10
  and
• 4:10
  is
• 4:10
  so
• 4:11
  much
• 4:11
  more
• 4:11
  streamlined
• 4:11
  and
• 4:12
  focused
• 4:12
  now
• 4:12
  that
• 4:13
  I
• 4:13
  think
• 4:13
  retailers,
• 4:15
  you
• 4:15
  know,
• 4:15
  that
• 4:15
  are,
• 4:15
  that
• 4:16
  are
• 4:16
  testing
• 4:16
  this
• 4:16
  concept
• 4:17
  in
• 4:17
  Europe
• 4:17
  and
• 4:17
  now
• 4:17
  as
• 4:18
  it
• 4:18
  comes,
• 4:18
  you
• 4:18
  know,
• 4:19
  more
• 4:19
  where
• 4:19
  it
• 4:19
  expands
• 4:20
  across
• 4:20
  the
• 4:20
  US
• 4:21
  market
• 4:21
  too.
• 4:21
  You
• 4:22
  know,
• 4:22
  they're
• 4:22
  really
• 4:22
  testing
• 4:23
  for
• 4:23
  the
• 4:23
  worst
• 4:23
  case
• 4:23
  scenario,
• 4:24
  the
• 4:24
  highest
• 4:24
  paid
• 4:25
  employee.
• 4:25
  And
• 4:25
  now
• 4:26
  I
• 4:26
  think
• 4:26
  it'll
• 4:26
  be
• 4:26
  interesting
• 4:27
  to
• 4:27
  see
• 4:27
  as
• 4:27
  this
• 4:27
  expands
• 4:28
  through
• 4:28
  the
• 4:28
  U.S.
• 4:28
  you
• 4:29
  know,
• 4:29
  how
• 4:29
  much
• 4:29
  more
• 4:30
  efficiency
• 4:30
  they're
• 4:30
  able
• 4:31
  to
• 4:31
  drive
• 4:31
  out
• 4:31
  of
• 4:31
  these
• 4:31
  stores.
• 4:32
  And
• 4:32
  especially
• 4:32
  in
• 4:33
  Circle
• 4:33
  K
• 4:33
  stores
• 4:34
  too,
• 4:34
  as
• 4:34
  they,
• 4:35
  they
• 4:36
  now
• 4:36
  have
• 4:36
  Corso
• 4:38
  in
• 4:38
  their
• 4:38
  utility
• 4:39
  belt.
• 4:39
  Yeah,
• 4:40
  I
• 4:40
  mean
• 4:40
  12,000
• 4:40
  stores
• 4:41
  is
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  lot
• 4:41
  of
• 4:41
  stores
• 4:42
  too.
• 4:42
  Like
• 4:42
  that's
• 4:43
  a
• 4:43
  lot
• 4:43
  of
• 4:43
  storage.
• 4:43
  So
• 4:43
  of
• 4:44
  course
• 4:44
  it's
• 4:44
  going
• 4:44
  to
• 4:44
  learn
• 4:44
  a
• 4:45
  ton
• 4:45
  from
• 4:45
  this
• 4:46
  deployment.
• 4:47
  100%.
