Crocs, Inc.’s Post

The very foundations of NEXUSSHIFT, are rooted in connecting us to work, brands, and services we love and can relate to. Everyone deserves to be passionate and connected to their work, the brands they choose to engage with and the businesses they choose to partner. It is the connection and experiences between us, that creates culture. This in combination with strategy and a refined brand drives growth and connection greater than the product or service we provide. Overall, we strive to bring a holistic view of how connections between individuals, their work, preferred brands, and businesses are fundamental to fostering a thriving culture and driving growth. It emphasizes the significance of authenticity, passion, inclusivity, and strategic thinking in building meaningful relationships and achieving success.

What do Crocs and Stanley have in common? A lot! And do you know why? Terence Reilly, formerly CMO at Crocs and now President of Stanley, was key in raising the brand's annual revenue from $70M to an impressive $750M. The strategic focus on emotionally connecting with consumers, instead of simply pursuing sales, transformed Stanley into a viral phenomenon and an essential fashion accessory. Terence's experience in reimagining Crocs, using high-profile collaborations and influential marketing, was directly applied to Stanley. He led the brand's shift towards a broader and more colorful appeal, making Stanley's products more than just utilitarian—they are now a lifestyle symbol. I share this example with many of my clients because it effectively highlights the importance of hiring based on skills rather than traditional markers of success, such as the prestige of one's college or years spent performing the same role. The critical question in high-performance recruitment should be: what problems has this candidate solved that can address the challenges my business faces? This is the essence of strategic recruitment. #futureofrecruitment #talentacquisition #executivesearch

New tone, who dis? 🤸♂️ It’s been six months since we launched our people and talent studio, and being people who love to lean into change, we thought our brand palette needed some tweaking - so we thought we'd give it a little glow up! We love colour, [if you haven’t already guessed] and we’ve always been eager to portray our brightness in a space that can look quite bland at times. And with two other brands to launch under the Brightside Collective over the coming weeks that we want to seamlessly connect, it was time to get creative and elevate what was already there. And speaking of launching our new brands, as a little teaser, we’ll be bringing to life Fraction & Kodi. Fraction will be geared specifically towards senior fractional recruitment, and Kodi will be a dedicated brand for the tech & software space, but with a neuro spicy and inclusive twist! Let us know what you think about our new colour palette, and as always, give us a shout if you wanna talk building teams or making career moves. Oh, and if you’re keen to come along the journey and join our team[s] then give us a hollaaaaa! 📩 eron@brightsidecollective.com.au

As human beings we tend to look at everything through our own lenses. Companies have different values and business models. For every Walmart there is a Costco, for every Luxottica there is a Warby Parker. Working for companies is the same. I like to say that jobs are like jeans- what fits me may not fit you. Don’t just look at a company's performance; ask about their values. How do they treat employees, customers, and vendor partners?? Do your research and find the right👖for you.

As we move into 2025, I want to take a moment to thank my team and share this video celebrating my journey with Evelyn & Bobbie in 2024. It’s been a year of learning, collaboration, and key milestones. Here are a few highlights: 1️⃣ Fit Salons We hosted six full-size-range fit parties with over 250 women in three months, during which I completed 85 fittings. These events deepened our understanding of customer needs, refined our products, and provided invaluable insights for our cross-functional team. 2️⃣ Team Week Bringing our remote teammates together for bonding, learning from each other’s expertise, and brainstorming ideas to enhance our business was a truly enriching experience. I can’t wait to reconnect! 3️⃣ Vendor & Factory Visits in Asia I’m grateful for the opportunity to visit our partners in Asia, gaining insights into production processes, new techniques, and lab testing. As an Asian team member, I was honored to support seamless communication and cultural connection, collaborating on new opportunities and solving challenges. 4️⃣ Technical Design & Project Management I’m fortunate to have contributed to the successful launch of our recent mesh collection, where I learned that even small changes require meticulous attention to detail at every step! A special thanks to my manager and team for their support and guidance, which not only enhanced my experience in fitting, but upskilled in managing samples, fit models, vendor communication, and project updates for smooth development process. Looking back, I’m proud of what we accomplished in 2024 and excited to achieve even more with my team in 2025! 🚀🚀🚀 Our mission continues in 2025: helping women find their perfect comfort bras! #innovation #wirelessbra #womenownbusiness #productdevelopment #technicaldesign #accomplishment
