Career Coach: What does innovative leadership mean in 2020?

Top companies across the fashion industry from Scotch and Soda to Condé Nast’s GQ Germany have recently announced new executive hires and creation of visionary leadership roles to take them into the new decade. A brand’s company culture, social values and innovative leadership have never been more relevant in the fashion industry than now. 2020 has just begun and already Victoria’s Secret former CMO, Ed Razek, was accused of sexual harassment by more than 30 employees. Since last year, the downsizing of retail giants from Macy’s to Gap have jolted brands such as JC Penney to restructure senior leadership teams in an attempt to reinvigorate their retail strategy for the future. Joining the current conversation on what makes innovative leadership, luxury label Coach (Tapestry) recently gathered their Presidents from across the globe at the New York headquarters to discuss the importance of exchanging perspectives and what innovative leadership means to them.
