In the Loupe EXCLUSIVE
Bill Becker, new President of the Retail Jewelers Organization (RJO), shares his perspective on the organization's growth from a small collective buying group in 1966 to a powerhouse with nearly 1,200 members today. As both a multi-store jeweler and industry leader, Bill offers unique insights into RJO's success factors, current challenges, and his vision for supporting independent jewelers.
Michael was honored to sit down for the first in-depth conversation with Bill to discuss taking over for Terry Dickens, now RJO President Emeritus, collaborating with Sarah Streb, CEO of RJO, and his vision for the future or the group.
