Saltbridge Sun’s CEO Interview Series: Exclusive Interview with CEO of Paladin Cinema, Mr. John Craft


Editor’s Note: This interview is part of Saltbridge Sun’s CEO interview series. This series is with CEO of most successful cinema chains with more than 70 countries around the world, Mr. John Craft of Paladin Cinema

Mr.John Craft, of Kinborough, an experienced movie producer who until 2010 ran Master Theater; John Craft was made CEO upon the merger of his company with Paladin Cinema's. Corporate HQ is now in Fineberg in New Edom.

1. What are your most important professional achievements at your current company?
"I think that when we changed our approach to customer service, we brought a sense of new life into the company. It is part of what took us from being a largely regional cinema company with some international outlets in a few large nations to a truly international one, which is one of the largest cinema companies in the world."

2. What lessons did you learn on your way to becoming a CEO?
"I learned to balance leadership and delegation. It involves some risk taking to not simply focus on executive decisions supported by a network of management. Leadership involves acceptance and good judgement about risks."

3. What is the concept behind Paladin Cinema?
"Paladin Cinemas combines a nostalgic sense of the cinema experience of yesteryear with providing the most up to date in movie excellence. It's a chance for regular people to go out and enjoy a movie with other people and have a lot of fun doing it."

4. As close to layman’s terms as you can get, how does the process work? What have you figured out at Paladin Cinema that others have not?
"The most important part of the process is the online contact. We've made the website as user friendly and intuitive as possible, so that it's easy as pie to click and find what you want, find out what movies are up to date, how to apply as a supplier, advertiser, or to promote a film for distribution."

5. Why are you convinced this is the right time for addressing entertainment industry, or is it more of the right technology that is making it the right time?
"People still need to get out and get away from work and home to have some recreational time. There's something about the experience of seeing a movie in a theatre on a big screen that I think won't go away any time soon. The latest technology keeps making the experience get better and better."

6. Why is Paladin Cinema an exceptional company?
"Paladin Cinema is exceptional because we have the concept of adventure in the hearts of our leadership. Anyone can establish cash flow and make money--we are glad to provide our community--the community of the whole big world of many nations out there--an important service. That service is getting excited, laughing, getting scared without being in actual danger, enjoying entertainment and the relaxation that comes after that. Something all civilizations need that we're glad to work hard to provide our very best for, every day."
