As the New Year nears, retail bosses tell Retail Week about their resolutions for 2017.

I will begin day one of the new year devoted to detox, including participating in dry January. By day seven I will question my resolution, and by the 26th I will well and truly fall off the wagon at the annual Retail Trust Charity Ball.

I am privileged to run a business full of passionate and committed people, so I will continue to invest in building teams that truly make a difference.

Without a doubt, this year will test the best of us, but I remain resolute about our plans and will enjoy the success and opportunity a new year always brings.
