商品敘述：

Gucci Group''s CEO had to decide if his decentralized management style was the most effective philosophy in an economic downturn. The sharing of customer information across units and its use in the creative process are key initiatives analyzed in the case. CEO Robert Polet joined the high-end fashion Gucci Group in 2004, after 26 years at one of the largest consumer goods companies. Since his arrival, the Group had grown both in revenues and profitability. Part of his secret was his decentralized and empowering management style. In 2008, in the midst of the economic downturn following the credit crunch crisis, Polet learned that after four years of growth the Gucci brand-the Group''s largest business-would report a slowdown for the year''s first semester. He knew that according to his management philosophy he should leave the primary decisions for the Gucci brand to Gucci''s CEO. Yet, given the urgency of the situation, Polet wondered if it would be more effective to become directly involved in the brand''s decision-making process. To anchor the discussion on Polet''s management style, the case discusses how customer information is used in the creative process and whether it would be beneficial for the group to share customer information across stores, regions, and brands.
