Although technically he might be getting promoted, his compensation will drop precipitously. As CEO he was making $40+ million per year, while board members, even the chairman, are paid in the hundreds of thousands.
Last non-T&F Nike CEO was reviled by the rank and file and did not last long. It will be interesting to see how the ebay guy does. Fifteen years since Phil quit, the company may have moved on enough from its jock roots that a non-athlete will work. This would be the last rites over a dying (corporate) body that has been progressively decompensating since Jeff Johnson quit, Hollister died, Freddy Doyle left, the Horse moved to Eugene, etc. RIP what was once right and true.

Idiot, he remains as executive chairman and leader of the bird of directors. Tell Kara to retake business 101
Your Business 101 grade is F. Bird of Directors? Don't sleep in class next time if you don't drop out.
Your writing grade is also an F. Really man, it's BAD. Is English your first language? I apologize for my comments if it's not.

I know I made that mistake, pendejo. Problem is, this particular site does not allow you to edit your post once you click submit...pendejo.

you really believe that what happens at one training group in a small fry sport like athletics is going to influence the way Nike operates?
Nike is only even involved in athletics as a charitable gesture cause thats where it started.
the majority of people out there wouldnt even know who Salazar and Parker are, let alone care.
This right here. I can’t believe people are so clueless. Track and field is barely a blip on the radar for them.

Like I told the other guy..."I know I made that mistake, pendejo. Problem is, this particular site does not allow you to edit your post once you click submit...pendejo."
Look for the definition of pendejo, because that's what both of you are.

“His track record shows that." Under Parker’s leadership, the company grew sales from $15 billion to $39 billion a year.
Nike’s stock has increased more than 20 percent since the first of the year.
In his 13 years at Nike’s top job, Parker, 64, led the company to awesome growth -- from $15 billion to nearly $40 billion in sales. Tim Boyle, CEO, chair and President of Columbia Sportswear, said Parker’s pending retirement is a big loss to the company and the community. Employment at Nike during Parker’s stint as CEO grew from 28,000 to 76,700.
The surprise move comes after multiple issues became apparent at Nike, most recently a doping scandal that led to the four-year ban of Alberto Salazar, a prominent Nike employee. Included as evidence in the case were emails to Parker keeping him apprised of the latest dope experiments.
An accomplished college runner himself, Parker adamantly denied he knew anything about the doping and insisted that Nike would never be involved in such a practice.

There were plenty of other painful problems during Parker’s tenure:
-- Women frustrated that they were paid less and promoted less often than their male counterparts demanded Parker and his virtually all-male executive team make changes.
-- Rival factions engaged in a debilitating battle for control of the company, which led to the sudden “retirement” of the company’s no. 2 executive and the firing of several others.
-- Criminal investigators probed the elite teenage basketball world and found convincing evidence that Nike and other sneaker companies were paying top teenage prospects. Unlike Adidas, which saw an employee and a consultant hit with fraud charges, Nike managed to avoid any indictments. Only in September did court documents reveal that Nike had been cooperating with prosecutors for two years.
-- Some of Nike’s top female athletes blasted the company for policies that effectively cut the pay and otherwise penalized them for getting pregnant.
Though all of the issues, Nike’s sustained sales growth and increased its market dominance.
How come I don’t see any threads about Shalane Flanagan retiring?
The best CEO out of two. That's saying something.

Either because you are blind or you choose to overlook them.
Threads about Shalene retiring are not controversial. She was expecting to retire soon.

How I hope the rest of this exchange goes:
I'm not your chupacabra, pendejo!
I'm not your pendejo, chupacabra!
So you increase the employee base by 2.6x and revenue increases 2.6x . That doesn't say he was better at sales, just increasing the size of the company.

And how many of them are sold to people who actually run?
I've seen more people wearing Epic Reacts as street wear shoes than I have running in them.
This is besides the point.
I'm surprised nobody has used the word 'cabron' (put accent on o) yet.

Shalene retires, Parker resigns.... make the connection.
The sun came up in the east, you made a meaningless comment...make the connection.
You guys are so run focused you can't see the forest through the trees.
This has NOTHING to do w/running.
This is all about HONG KONG and CHINA, and NBA.
Figure it out, dummies.
