Hubert Joly, CEO of Best Buy since August 2012 and the rapid turnaround at Best Buy
04/11/2012
Joly is a graduate of the French Institut Etudes de Politiques and was CEO of Swedish hotel and travel service firm Carlson before joining Best Buy in August 2012. His strategy was to convert shoppers at Best Buy into buyers by making sure they get the best price they can get elsewhere. And to offer them service, convenience and advice. For him it was "shame on us" if the shopper walked out without buying because this was a better deal than he could get anywhere else. To do this he took out costs elsewhere. Best Buy's stock is up about 240% and is one of the best performing stocks of 2013.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
