Neil Freiman和Toby Howell分析了耐克CEO约翰·多纳霍的突然离职,以及这一事件对耐克公司未来发展的影响。他们认为,多纳霍的咨询背景导致他更注重优化公司内部结构和电商业务,而忽视了耐克的品牌文化和与零售商的关系,最终导致公司业绩下滑和市场份额流失。多纳霍的离职,以及一位拥有30年耐克工作经验的内部人士接任CEO,标志着耐克公司将重新调整战略方向,修复与零售商的关系,并加强产品创新,以应对来自竞争对手(如Hoka和On)的压力。他们认为,耐克仍然拥有强大的品牌优势,只要能够在产品创新和市场策略上做出调整,就有可能扭转目前的困境。 他们详细讨论了多纳霍领导下的耐克所面临的挑战,包括业绩下滑、市场份额流失以及与重要零售商关系的恶化。他们指出,多纳霍将重心放在线上销售和直接面向消费者(D2C)的策略,虽然在疫情期间取得了成功,但最终导致公司对传统零售渠道的依赖减少,错失了与关键零售商合作的机会,并使耐克在市场竞争中处于劣势。此外,他们还批评了多纳霍对老款鞋的过度依赖,认为这损害了耐克的品牌形象和创新能力。他们认为,新任CEO将致力于修复与零售商的关系,并推动公司在产品创新方面取得突破,以重塑耐克的品牌形象和市场竞争力。
