Remarkable On Purpose with Patagonia's Angela Clark

Angela Clark, Patagonia's VP of Digital--and one of retail's most celebrated and experienced e-commerce leaders--joins us to discuss driving digital transformation and how purpose is integral to Patagonia's strategy. She drops a ton of wisdom gleaned from her roles at multiple brands on the leading edge of the digital commerce evolution. In particular, we look at how Patagonia is building on its remarkable success to both build its direct-to-consumer capabilities and continuing to be a leader on climate action.

But before our interview we do a bit of humble-bragging, calling attention to our both being named once again to Rethink Retail's Top Retail Expert list. We also announce that Steve will be on stage at both Shoptalk US and Shoptalk Europe, while sharing a special discount code for our listeners (see below).

Then it's on to the news of the week, including our take-aways from the NRF Big Show, where retail sales may be headed in the new year, and what to make of Macy's just announced store closings and layoffs, We also lament yet another round of layoffs at Wayfair before celebrating Birkenstock's remarkable first quarter as a public company, We close with our view on Apple's soon to go on sale Vision Pro device.
