Has ANYTHING good come of the changes in April? I sit in meetings all day where nobody knows direction, people can’t start a new role because nobody realized their old role was actually important, or nobody wants to be here. We cut people, teams... — read more
Measuring Success of Sport Offense: A Case Study Featuring Tennis
I know very little about all sports, but I enjoyed watching the US Open this year. It seems like the right size sport to measure whether the sport offense strategy is working (running for example way more disjointed and hard to comprehend). 2 years... — read more
Every dog has its day in this industry...
Nike will have upswing eventually. When hot brands Hoka, On, adidas, Asics slow down, it will have its chance. the job for Nike is to be ready when that chance comes up. Not sure if EH will be here 3 years down the line but Nike needs to be... — read more
Nike is out of S&P 100!! When will DJ30 act?
Nike doesn't belong there! 5 year losing streak? And still there?
Nike's problem is that....
I was at Costco and it had cr-p load of Nike rolling around with shoes and clothings. I did not find what I want but the price was unreal! So I went to Nike store in the same mall. Besides I could not find any Nike high end running shoes, nobody... — read more
HR Strategy
Our HR leader’s 30+ strategy deck makes no sense. Gibberish. No wonder employees are not valued or recognized. There is no strategy.

It's good to see everybody yelling at Adidas for a change
Let's enjoy it while it lasts.
How do you live with the uncertainty?
How do you stop thinking about the fact that your job could disappear tomorrow? I know I can't control it, but that doesn't make the worry any easier.
Stock price conspiracy
I wouldn’t doubt that many of these companies are looking to drop stock prices on purpose? Probably to buy back at a lower price in the hopes to have big gains in the next 18 to 24 months.

Nike's next earnings report is schduled to be released on Oct 1st
Any bad guidance during the call will firmly put the stock in the $20s. The result is already baked into the current stock price. Let's pray, because if the guidance is bad then it will follow up by layoffs
Nike was on auto pilot for last 10 years.....
they were flying for so long in auto pilot that it was time to turn the plane or land the plane they realized that they forgot to land the darn thing. EH never flew the plane so he does not know how to land so he is going on a circle probably until... — read more
If history plays out…
I imagine whomever designed the specter nba jerseys that are getting trashed online will be next up for a promotion.
Sell your stock!
$20/share by end of year.
Yesterday, Nike held to $37.00 by skin of its teeth!!!
I was suspecting that PK stepped in to buy to create support at that level. LOL JK Today, NKE blew pass $37.00 as if it doesn't exist. And it comfortably found home at upper $36.00. That is if market will not turn south at the last hour of... — read more

Hiring Freeze the Perpetual Lie
I’ve (my whole team really) has been told again and again that there is a hiring freeze, but also if we want to move up at Nike, we would do best to seek positions outside of our current team or function. Yet, I know of more than one person who was... — read more

Nike getting kickout of S&P 100 could be blessing in disguise
Last few years, Nike was concerned about what Wall Street thought and jumped through the hoops to make it look good for the them. Now that they are not part of the index, they should be worried making shoes that matters to public. And forget about... — read more
GT Promotion
Hey all - wondering what the promotion process is like in GT, is it possible for our managers to put us up for a promotion if deserving?
Nike closed my account after 40 years as independent dealer. Now Nike is out of S&P100
this is KARMA. Next is Dow Jones 30, Nike can't justify for being there after results that they put last few years. As all the S&P100 mutual funds and pension funds that follow S&P 100 strategy have to dump Nike and buy new member that has been... — read more
Is SCPT safe?
I saw they’ve got a few roles open. I’m thinking about reaching out and connecting with the hiring manager, what do you all think?
New CISO
What’s up with the ciso backfill? Any rumours
We’re sc--wed
Kicked out of S&P is disgraceful. Only plan is to layoff more workers and outsource. Continuing to hire leaders. Tech leaders are clueless. ITC is a do nothing disaster. New vendor contracts make no sense and robbing us. No hot products. Leaders... — read more
The Media Coverage of Nike

Nike drank the sh3twater and then Di-k's and now LULU
Wow, that is spectacular downfall. And I have heard from my retail sources that Hoka and On has slowed a lot. This is perfect storm of economy, fatigue by consumers with same styles and lack of design direction in the industry. For next round of... — read more
