Fireside Chat with Hubert Joly, Senior Lecturer at Harvard Business School, former CEO of Best Buy, and orchestrator of the retailer’s spectacular turnaround, unveils his personal playbook for achieving extraordinary outcomes by putting people and purpose at the heart of business.  

Could we apply the Hubert’s experience to start-up and Grown-up? 

How do we put people and purpose in the heart of our business?   

Back in 2012, “Everyone thought we were going to die” says Joly. Eight years later, Best Buy was transformed as Joly and his team rebuilt the company into one of the nation’s favorite employers, vastly increased customer satisfaction, and dramatically grew Best Buy’s stock price.  Joly and his team also succeeded in making Best Buy a leader in sustainability and innovation.   But that's not all what Hubert Joly achieved other incredible turnarounds as a CEO of Carlson, Vivendi Universal, EDS France.
