Peter Reid, the CEO of MSQ Partners is the next guest in our Challenger agency series.
A former McKinsey consultant, Peter has taken MSQ on quite a journey. He joined in 2007 to turn around a business that at the time was known as Media Square and that came with significant financial challenges.

Waypoint partner Jim Houghton talks to Peter about many things, including:
