“There is a famous saying about leaders that I hold very true to my heart: “When you leave a meeting with a manager, you learn how great he/she is. When you leave a meeting with a leader, you learn how great you are. James Dutton is a world-class leader who is passionate about leaving the world in a better place. I had the pleasure of getting to know James over the past 3 years through our shared affiliations with industry organisations that drive innovation and opportunities for Australian retailers. Most recently with Frontliners Australia where together with a group of likeminded individuals we were able to support the frontline workers dealing with COVID-19. James and the team at Nutricare provided much-needed bandages to frontline workers during COVID. Not only did James step out of his role and show up, he rolled up his sleeves and collaborated on strategy, messaging and problem-solving. James has outstanding knowledge and industry experience in distribution and a passion for delivering much needed natural and sustainable solutions to the healthcare market. I have watched in awe as Nutricare has literally taken their products around the globe and had unprecedented success in the natural therapy space.

“James’ story on it’s own is captivating, but his storytelling and experience elevates Nutricare’s story to make it one of Australia’s great recent business successes. Chatting to James on The Mentor made it clear to me that Australia’s business community can find a wealth of insight and inspiration in his story.
