48: Being a Stock Runner in Chicago & Lessons on Leadership with Wilf Wikkerink

Wilf Wikkerink is the CEO of Book Depot, the largest bargain book wholesaler and retailer in North America. In 2021 Book Depot was awarded the prestigious “Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation.” Needless to say, I was incredibly stoked to be able to sit down with Wilf and ask him some questions. We talked about his time at Dordt College, the lessons he learned from various internships, selling his first company, and books that have inspired him. Wilf’s insights are fascinating and I learned a lot from this conversation, I hope y’all will as well. If you feel like reaching out, I am on Instagram @itsthevalk Cheers guys, Jake.
