Question ID: 709495
How does the organization structure in big multinational retailers
look like ? I am looking for examples from well known successful
retailers. Examples : WallMArt, Carrefeur, Sacks Fifth Avan.,
Debenham's , and the likes.

Thanks

Hi!

Are you more interested in senior managment organizational structure
or you want it by department.

I was able to find a senior management organizational structure for
Walmart. While there is a store level organizational structure
available for GAP including its other brands like Old Navy and Banana
Republic.

Will these be enough as an answer?

Thanks!

1- I am looking for complete organization chart top to bottom that
takes into consideration both senior management and lower levels such
as store level and the relation and link between these levels.

2- I am looking for top 5 to 10 OCs that drive the most successful
multinational retail giants.

Thanks

1- The format of the OC is not really useful unless it is put into
some graphical tool format. Examples: MS Power Point , Word or any
other popular tool. I dont know if that's possible or not. The current
plain text format is going to require a lot of effort where my time is
very limited to start converting it into graphical format. Names are
not really that much important to me. I do care more about the actual
structure and linking between functional areas at both enterprise and
operational levels.

2- The current information is part of some internal analysis that
involves consultants proposing specific OC scenarios and I am looking
for best practices from successfull multinational retailers. This
information is important for me.

Thanks

the html medium really isn't meant for a good visual of the org.  I
will list some info, however, that may help in your search.  In
general, you have the president and or CEO/Chairman at the top.  Below
them yu have a CFO - chief financial Officer.  Below and about
equivalent to the CFO you will have various executives, usually listed
as "SVP" for senior vice president.  Each SVP will be assigned to a
branch/division, for example, "supply chain management" ;
"merchandising" ; "online sales."  In some cases, like when Target had
"Mervyn's, you would have had the SVP who headed off this brand
division and a lot of sub divisions falling under this person (uh,
but, there is no longer a Mervyn's w/in target).

To be short, the dependencies are a function of what the company says.
 For this reason, it can be super convoluted, & virtually incoducive
to a printably useful form  But, most of the time, the inherent
structure is the same.

CEO
CFO
EVP
VP
DIVISIONAL PEEPS


One of the most astonishing questions, however, is why this
information is at all relevant.  People are real quick to want an org
chart, but I don't get how these things anyone would use one.

It's like, I won't dispute company performance is positively related
with good performance, to some degree.  But I also wouldn't sit down
and try to measure it.

Why?  Uh, because I couldn't.  And i am a pretty good measurer, so
this must mean something.

For this reason, I think there should be some sort of ban on org charts.

Here is the corp structure for Target, mentioned above:


Robert Ulrich 
Chairman & CEO
====================================
Douglas Scovanner (SUB ULRICH)
CFO & EVP

Timothy R. Baer (SUB ULRICH)
Sr. VP, General Counsel 

Gregg Steinhafel (SUB ULRICH)
President of Target Stores
====================================
Terrence Scully (SUB TO SCOVANNER)
President,
Financial Services

Paul L. Singer (SUB TO SCOVANNER)
Sr. VP, CIO &
Technology Services

Richard J. Kuzmich (SUB SCOVANNER)
President,  
Sourcing Services/AMC

Jane P. Windmeier (SUB SCOVANNER)
Sr. VP,
Finance
====================================

Bart Butzer (SUB SCOVANNER OR STEINHAFEL)
EVP,
Target Stores
====================================

Todd Blackwell (SUB BUTZER)
EVP, HR,
Asset Protection\AMC

Patricia Adams (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Merch Mgr.

Gina Sprenger (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Merch. Mgr.

Kathryn Tesija (SUB BUTZER)
Senior VP,
Merch. Mgr.

Gregory Duppler (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Merch Mgr.

Bryan Berg (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Region I

Robert Thompson (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Region II

Tina Schiel (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Region III

Brian Fiala (SUB BUTZER)
Sr. VP,
Region IV

====================================

Since I provide information for free, in return, I would like only one
thing.  While I work out the org for WMT and the other companies that
you listed, please give me a response explaining what you intend to
use this information for.  Honestly, I want to know your personal
insight into the org chart, and a simple explanation of why you find
it useful. Plus, provide some tips on what would help you understand
it better.

To hold you off, below are some key figures that either currently, or
at some past time held a key position @ WMT.  It will take a little
time to verify, and rework in logical order.

another good reference source for this info can be found in the annual
report, the 10K, or in Proxy statements.  These are always available
on the web site--usually in PDF form linked via the investors
relations site.  So if you download a pdf - annual report.  And you
know 1 last name, of some middle exec (note, you can't use the ceo
last name to search, because it will link all through the doc, even if
this person doesn't do much for the company...)

So you download this, and usually within the last few pages of the
annual, there will be an updated / current report of every exec within
the company.  Again, using the above guidelines, you can spot the corp
structure.  Why, when everyone wants org charts, the company doesn't
just provide this in the report?   Uh, then what would the analysts do
all day?

One of the reasons these charts are so hard to find (and the same for
why they are so important..) is because they define accountability and
provide a clear line of authority and responsibility.  Not a popular
practice..and they change all the time - like a game of jenga.

Presentations with organizational charts in retail, the 1st
specifically lists the structures of the "r" us's:
