About Lee Jeyes
I’ve always been drawn to the idea of transformation—how businesses, teams, and ideas can evolve to meet the demands of the future. Today, as Head of Innovation and Change at Waitrose, I lead initiatives that bridge vision and action, ensuring the business stays ahead in an ever-changing retail landscape. My work is focused on delivering innovations that matter: enhancing customer experiences, empowering teams, and driving operational excellence.My career began on the front lines of retail, managing stores and understanding firsthand the power of people, processes, and purpose in driving change. That foundation shaped my journey as I moved into senior roles, including Head of Innovation at Walmart Canada, where I launched Blue Labs, the company’s first innovation incubator. Through this work, I had the opportunity to develop and scale bold ideas, delivering over $500 million in business value and reshaping how retail connects with customers.I believe innovation is about more than technology; it’s about solving problems that matter. It’s about aligning people, ideas, and systems to create something greater than the sum of its parts. At Waitrose, this means not only introducing new concepts but ensuring they drive lasting impact—whether by improving customer satisfaction, increasing efficiency, or enabling teams to thrive in a fast-paced world.Along the way, I’ve shared these insights as a keynote speaker, helping leaders and teams navigate the complexity of change. My approach is grounded in real-world experience: practical, actionable strategies that move beyond theory to execution. I focus on turning ambition into measurable outcomes and empowering others to do the same.Every chapter of my career has been defined by a single purpose: to build the future while delivering results today. Whether launching groundbreaking projects, leading cultural change, or reimagining what’s possible in retail, my goal is to leave a lasting impact—on businesses, teams, and the customers they serve.
