In 2012, Hubert Joly joined as CEO of Best Buy, a company on the brink of disruption, and led one of the most remarkable comeback stories in American business annals. While CEO he didn't seek the spotlight, but now he's ready to share the principles that helped him complete this remarkable turnaround.
Having recently stepped down as Chairman and CEO of Best Buy, Joly shares the leadership principles illustrated by multiple vivid and concrete stories that underpinned the remarkable resurgence of Best Buy and that he believes are at the heart of business: pursue a noble purpose, put people at the center, embrace all stakeholders, and treat profit as an outcome. There was a time when many would call this a soft philosophy. But times have changed. The world and business are facing unprecedented challenges. Business can be, in fact needs to be a force for good.
In 2019, Best Buy and 180 other companies signed the momentous Business Roundtable statement in support of stakeholder capitalism, highlighting that you can do well by doing good. The Covid-19 pandemic further pushed many businesses to lead from a place of purpose and with humanity.
More broadly, Joly's principles echo and reaffirm that the notion of stakeholder capitalism isn't just a nice idea, it's the winning strategy.
Throughout the 1800s, explorers braved brutal weather and hostile
enemies, trekking through the towering mountains and fertile
valleys on the ragged edge of civilization. These early pioneers
built stockades, trading posts, military camps and miniature
citadels that would shape the state of Colorado for generations to
come. As the settlers struggled to survive desperate times,
economic depressions and bloody wars, some of these historic
outposts would become Colorado's cities, schools, hospitals and
museums, while others would sink back into the mud from which they
came. Join author Jolie Anderson Gallagher as she chronicles the
stories of the forts and the early explorers, fur trappers,
soldiers and wives who constructed and occupied them.

This dark romantic comedy is the debut feature for director Yann
Samuell. The film follows the intimate but twisted relationship
between two would-be lovers, Julien (Guillaume Canet) and Sophie
(Marion Cotillard), who first meet as eight-year-olds in
inauspicious circumstances: Julien's mother is dying, while Sophie
is suffering ferocious bullying at school. When Julien plays a
practical joke on the children who are picking on Sophie, a close
friendship evolves between the two, which is based on an ongoing
game of dares and forfeits. As they grow older, the game
increasingly becomes a power struggle as they use it to torment and
embarrass each other - but could it really be an elaborate cover
for the deep affection they hold for one another?
