In a move to make Best Buy more responsive to
business opportunities and challenges, the company announced today a new
leadership organization for its U.S. operations. The senior-most layer of the
U.S. operation is being removed; resulting in a leaner structure intended to
improve the company's agility.
"One thing I have learned in helping turn companies around is that a business
needs to have a nimble organization," said Best Buy President and CEO Hubert
Joly. "Our new organization will help build a closer connection to our
customers and front line employees, as well as accelerate our transformation."
Effective January 1, 2013, Best Buy's operations in the U.S. will be
structured around the following groups:
o Two Channels - Online and Retail: While online continues to be overseen by
Stephen Gillett, president of Digital and Marketing, Shawn Score is
appointed to lead the U.S. retail channel.
o Three Business Groups - Connectivity, Home and Services: Jude Buckley is
promoted to head the Connectivity Business Group, succeeding Shawn Score,
while Home and Services will continue to be led respectively by Mike Mohan
and George Sherman.
o Support functions, including Human Resources, Finance, Legal and
Marketing, where there are no leadership changes.
