Description

In this episode we’re headed down to the San Francisco Bay area to visit a few of our stores for a series of “State of the Company” meetings. Every year our executive leaders travel across the country to host these town hall style meetings to connect with our people and to share some of our progress from last year and goals for the future.

Additionally each year, groups of Nordstrom stores compete to win the coveted Presidents Cup. This is an award given to the stores that drove the highest percentage increase in sales volume within their goal group.

For 2023 our teams at Hillsdale, Walnut Creek, Palo Alto, Corte Madera, and Valley Fair brought home the win in their goal group, which was markets with 4+ Nordstrom stores. You’ll hear excerpts from my visit to three of those stores: Hillsdale, Walnut Creek, and Palo Alto.

We’re excited to recognize and celebrate our 2023 President’s Cup award winners, and share some of the conversations that we had around how to improve in 2024.

Thanks for tuning in to episode 59. We hope you enjoy it!

Hi, I’m Pete Nordstrom, and I'm the host of The Nordy Pod, a new podcast coming to you from the 6th floor of Nordstrom corporate headquarters in Seattle, Washington. In addition to hosting this podcast, I also happen to be the president of Nordstrom. And along with my brother Erik, CEO, and my cousin Jamie, President of Stores, we're the fourth-generation stewards of this business started by my great grandfather in 1901. My Nordstrom journey began when I was 12 years old with my first job working in the stockroom. And along the way, I’ve met so many incredible people, from iconic artists and CEOs to cultural and community leaders and fashion entrepreneurs—as well as many of our thousands of employees and millions of customers. One thing I've found helpful in running a company and hosting a podcast is the importance of having a strong sense of curiosity. Over the years, I’ve found myself in some very interesting conversations with people I greatly admire. These cumulative experiences have really enriched my life, and with The Nordy Pod, I'm excited to have the opportunity to share both professional and personal experiences with you. So join me on a journey as I take you deep into a business that also happens to be a public company. You'll go behind the scenes with me and hear firsthand exactly what I do in my day job, warts and all, in the hopes of making a human connection with every episode.
