“I had the privilege of working closely with Scott during my time as Senior Legal Counsel at SAP, where we often found ourselves burning the midnight oil to close complex and high-stakes deals. Scott’s exceptional leadership and deep understanding of both our products and customer needs were invaluable throughout these negotiations. His steady, professional approach, even in the most challenging circumstances, consistently helped us reach successful outcomes. Scott’s meticulous attention to detail were key to closing some of our most important deals. What really distinguishes Scott is his genuine collaborative approach. He cultivated a team-oriented environment where everyone felt engaged and motivated to contribute. His ability to build trust both internally and with customers made him not just a sales leader, but an excellent partner in every engagement. Simply put: we got things done. I highly recommend Scott to any organization looking for a dynamic, results-driven executive in sales.”

Bain & Company - The 2026 Retail Executive Agenda Successfully leading a retail business is getting harder—you’re not imagining it. The S&P Retail Index grew only 12% over the past three years, while the broader S&P rose 21%. The top 100 retailers had an average CEO turnover rate of 22% during the same period, up from 17% over the previous three years, according to our analysis of BoardEx data. Cycles are compressing, there’s no longer safety in scale alone, and iconic brands are going bankrupt. #Bain #Retail #turnover #brand #Growth #Business #CEO https://lnkd.in/exDctWvY

🚨 Home Depot Flags a Bumpy Road Ahead When Home Depot talks, the market listens. The home improvement giant delivered a mixed earnings report: • 📉 4% decline in Q4 sales • ✅ Beat on revenue and earnings expectations • ⚠️ Cautious outlook for the year ahead CFO Richard McPhail didn’t sugarcoat it — the housing market remains “frozen.” High mortgage rates are keeping buyers sidelined, which means fewer renovations, fewer remodels, and less discretionary spending. And that’s the key. Home Depot isn’t just selling lumber and power tools. It’s a proxy for: 🏠 Housing turnover 💳 Consumer confidence 🛠️ Big-ticket discretionary spending 📊 Economic momentum When homeowners aren’t moving, they’re not remodeling kitchens. When consumers feel squeezed, they delay that $8,000 deck upgrade. This is what we call a late-cycle consumer signal. Even though they beat expectations, forward guidance is what matters. Markets price the future, not the past. If shoppers are getting selective and the housing market is stalled, that can ripple across construction, materials, regional banks, and even appliance manufacturers. The economy may not be collapsing — but it’s definitely not accelerating. Watch for: Retail discretionary names Homebuilders Housing-related ETFs Consumer credit trends When a bellwether starts sounding cautious, you pay attention. Let me know — is this a temporary slowdown or the start of broader demand compression? #HomeDepot #EarningsSeason #EconomicOutlook #ConsumerSpending #HousingMarket #RetailStocks #StockMarketNews #MacroTrends #Investing #MarketAnalysis #Stacquity

What's Draining Retail Profits? We welcomed back industry expert Walter Holbrook for a deep dive into the ever-evolving world of U.S. retail. From surging costs to operational inefficiencies, he tackled some of the most pressing issues facing brick-and-mortar retailers. 👀 In this episode, we discuss: - Why investing in people—NOT just technology—remains critical for retailers. - Lessons from grocery chains on streamlining replenishment and in-store execution. - The ongoing struggles (and missed opportunities) at retail giants like Target, Kohl's’s, and Ross Stores, Inc.. - How shop-in-shop concepts and merchandise curation could revitalize department stores. - The impact of recent tariff changes and the end of de minimis on fast fashion and global competition. - Why the American consumer’s passion for shopping keeps U.S. retail thriving, even amidst challenges. Walter brings his signature candor and insight, sharing real-world strategies (and a few tough-love truths!) for anyone navigating today’s retail landscape. Ready to get inspired and informed? 🎧 Listen now and join the conversation on what it takes to not just survive, but THRIVE, in modern retail. 🔗 Link to the podcast is in the first comment on this post #Retail #Leadership #CustomerExperience #RetailInnovation #SupplyChain #USeconomy

The politics of pricing are heating up—and NECG’s own Gary Stibel was recently quoted in Retail Dive on how brands should respond. As new tariffs threaten to drive up costs across retail, companies are facing a tough choice: raise prices quietly, or explain the increase to customers. But Gary makes one thing clear: success won’t come from pricing tactics alone. Instead, the focus should be on value. Smart brands will use moments like these to reinforce customer loyalty, pairing tough news with positive news—whether it’s a new product launch, a limited-time offer, or a message that says “we’re in this together.” 🔗Check out the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eB_AU5ke #NECG #Tarrifs #PricingStrategy #Retail #Consulting
