New Torstar Corp. president and chief executive officer John Boynton has laid out the “four anchors” supporting a transformation underway at the publisher of the Toronto Star. “Already we’re a very different business,” Boynton said after the company’s annual general meeting in Toronto on Wednesday. He said the path forward starts with a “deep customer-centric obsession” followed by the second anchor based on journalistic excellence that fuels change while engaging consumers and clients, in turn generating profitable revenue. The third is the “advanced data-driven competency” needed to prosper in a digital, mobile and time-pressed world. “This is thinking differently.”
