Battling stalled sales, a slumping housing marketing an antiquated supply chain and customer service not up to par, Frank Blake had his work cut out for himself when he stepped into the Home Depot CEO role in January 2007.
He stepped down from that role recently, but in between he polished up the tarnished big box home improvement retailer. Share price soared and same stores sales have shown the best results since the late 1990s.
Blake, who epitomizes the inspirational leader, has an informative, inspiring conversation with the NRF about how he brought the Home Depot back to life as a preeminent retailer.
