Just do it. The famous Nike swoosh. The iconic athletes. Nike is many things to many people, but to us, the retail behemoth is a case study in good business.  

We took a look into the recent annual reports from the company, asking some key questions along the way: 

  • What is Nike's business model?
  • How has COVID-19 impacted the company?
  • What can we learn from how Nike runs Nike?
  • And much more

Grab your headphones and favorite notepad, and get ready to dive into another juicy episode of Strategy Simplified!
