John Browett, the former head of Apple Retail who was ousted after a series of controversial moves left employees and customers feeling he was too profit-oriented, has taken a new job. He will become the CEO of UK-based retain chain Monsoon Accessorize. The company says it went through "an extensive search" before settling on Browett, saying he will be able to take the company "to the next level." Browett will be in charge of over 1,000 retail outlets, more than twice as many as Apple has worldwide. Before his stint at Apple, Browett was head of UK electronics chain Dixons.
