Leadership
Brad Anderson
Brad spent more than three decades at Best Buy, a multinational consumer electronics retailer, retiring in 2009 as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Vice Chairman. He began his career with Best Buy in 1973 as a commissioned salesperson for Sound of Music, the precursor to Best Buy. The core of his legacy at the company is best exemplified in its evolution from a product-centered business to a customer-centric one where consumer needs dictate what and how products are sold. Brad returned to the Best Buy board as a director from 2013 to 2016. He is currently the Executive Board Chair of the Job Creators Network (JCN).
