The past several years JC Penney has made drastic shifts to their pricing strategy and store operations, including several leadership changes. Bringing back CEO Mike Ullman, after an 18-month stint of former Apple retail guru Ron Johnson, has helped to stabilize this classic American brand. Since then, JC Penney has posted two quarters of growth for the first time in several years.
This strategy was presented at my NYU’s Business Leadership class, where we were tasked with analyzing the company’s current leadership and provides our recommendations for a new sustainable strategic approach.
After years of isolating their customers and employees, resulting in industry irrelevance and financial decline, this strategy would bring this American staple brand back to retail prominence. This proposal is meant to take place shortly after Ron Johnson’s departure, prior to the recent growth JC Penney has seen in Q4 ’13.
