This week we do a deep dive into the rapidly changing world of retail real estate with Tom McGee, the CEO of the ICSC, the industry's biggest trade association. In a wide ranging conversation we get Tom's view of how the industry continues to evolve from legacy concepts to marketplaces, what the pandemic did to reshape the landscape, and which key trends we should be paying attention to.We also explore why so many people fell for the bogus "retail apocalypse" narrative, what the blurring of the lines between physical and digital portends, and how important the "halo effect" of physical stores can be for retailers.But as is our custom, we kick things off by dissecting the biggest new of the week, including what to make of quarterly earnings and downward guidance from both Walmart and Home Depot. Then we briefly touch on Wayfair's very bad week before moving on to Target's good news decision to double down on the "stores as hubs" strategy by adding six additional "sortation centers." Next we try to wrap our heads around Amazon's decision to disband it's shopper experience group as well as the news that Shein may approach $60 billion on revenue by 2025, which would exceed the combined sales fo Zara and H&M.******We're headed to Las Vegas in March for another edition of Shoptalk.

Join BDO's Center for Corporate Governance Amy Rojik as she and her colleague Todd Simmens, National Managing Partner of Tax Risk Management, to discuss how the board's oversight of corporate strategy and risk management would be remiss without an understanding and consideration of evolving global and domestic tax regulations anticipated to significantly impact decision-making at the board level. Key Takeaways:Companies are advised to continue to remain abreast of legislative activity to inform on-going scenario planning, inclusive of the tax department and appropriate advisors. Tax implications need to be considered early on in contemplation of transactions as well as operational decisions and human resource matters.Expectations for a robust tax bill in 2022 under the Biden Administration's ‘Build Back Better' plans may have lost sight of the power that individual members of the House and Senate can have.Mid-term U.S. political elections may put some of the more contentious progressive tax increases being considered on the back burner.With regard to Biden's budget (aka the Green Book): As a reminder, certain of the Jobs Act provisions expire in 2025/2026; other provisions are permanent (e.g. Corporate Tax Rate increase from 21% to 28%, individual rates and capital gains as well as international regulations and policy changes such as the replacement of BEATS and onshoring of taxes) and would require legislation to enact tax changes.Internationally, companies are advised to be in tune to the OECD's agendaThe IRS continues to experience operational challenges including staffing issues, processing, refund delays and extended communication response times. Filers are advised to communicate with the IRS using certified mail or other form to demonstrate proof on communications. It is the responsibility of board of directors to be very aware of what tax professionals have to say about what is going on at the business level. Resources:2022 BDO Tax Outlook Survey

Deepa Purushothaman: The First, The Few, The Only Deepa is the co-founder of nFormation, a company which provides a brave, safe, and new space for professionals who are women of color. She spent more than twenty years at Deloitte and was a first herself: an Indian American woman and one of the youngest people to make partner in the company's history. In her time there, she helped grow Deloitte's Social Impact Practice, served as a National Managing Partner of Inclusion, and served as the Managing Partner of WIN—the firm's renowned program to recruit, retain, and advance women. Deepa speaks extensively on women and leadership. She has been featured at national conferences and in publications including Bloomberg BusinessWeek, The Huffington Post, and Harvard Business Review. She is the author of The First, The Few, The Only: How Women of Color can Redefine Power in Corporate America*. Key Points The corporate space has not fostered true equity. Often, many of us don't see the systemic examples each day of friction. “We can't find you,” is an often believed delusion when companies intend to attract more women of color. “I don't see color,” is often a well-intended belief, but in practice often marginalizes the lives experiences of women of color. “DEI will fix it all,” is an illusion. We all should be supporting peers in formal DEI roes to volunteer, show up, and be key partners in the work that benefits all of you. “You got white-manned,” reflects the belief that the world has to be a zero-sum competition.

Deepa Purushothaman knows what it feels like to be the only minority in a room. She spent 20 years working for Deloitte, where she was the first Indian-American woman and one of the youngest people to make partner in the company's history. At the time, there was no one who looked like Deepa in a similar role. She had no one to look up to or seek advice from, so she told herself “If I don't see it, I will be it.” And that's what she did. When Deepa left her career at Deloitte, she found her calling: helping other women and minorities navigate corporate America. Deepa is a leader in the battle to push businesses toward genuine diversity and inclusion. Her ideas on how to rework work culture will transform corporate America, making it a community where we all feel heard and respected.

The old rules no longer apply. Redundancy, once the norm for businesses trying to stay afloat in a recession, should be the last resort.

Hear from our CEO Greg Keith, and National Managing Partner of Financial Advisory Said Jahani, as they discuss how businesses are managing their workforces during COVID-19, what we can expect workforces to look like in the future, and the top 10 learnings from our experience in workforce restructuring.

Professional services firms have undergone dramatic shifts in the last 10 years, and many are predicting complete disruption in the next 20. As automation, broader access to information and other trends converge, smart professional service firms are looking to aggressively transform themselves.Perhaps one of the more ambitious firms in this regard is KPMG. My guest day is Fiona Grandi, National Managing Partner for Innovation & Enterprise Solutions at KPMG, and in this fascinating conversation we discuss how KPMG organizes itself internally to pursue innovation initiatives, how they embrace a bottoms-up approach to surfacing and executing on ideas, the impact things like automation will have on professional services in the future, and much more. Full disclosure, KPMG has been a client of Digital Intent, and we've been able to see first-hand how Fiona's team thinks about enabling consultants to use technology to deliver better work. After seeing our team interact with theirs, it was fun for me to hear directly from Fiona on the why behind what they do and where she sees them heading. It was a fascinating conversation and I think you'll get a ton of practical value of out it.For more ideas on how to disrupt your own organization visit us at www.digintent.com.

Before Christ, Becky Turner had made a complete mess of her life – relationally, financially and, especially, spiritually. In 1992, when she came to the end of herself and cried out to God, He graciously swooped in and lifted her out of the pit of her own making and set her feet on a solid Rock.Since that time, the Lord has done an amazing work as bit by bit and inch-by-inch He has delivered, transformed and renewed Becky to become the woman of God she is today. Becky has been blessed to minister around the world and experience God’s work in the villages of Africa, the high-rise apartments of Moscow as well as the streets of downtown Atlanta and Houston.Becky currently serves as the National Managing Partner for The Barnabas Group. In this capacity, she is able to use her unique gifts and skills to fulfill her passion for discipleship and stewardship by serving the national network of TBG leaders and members who are impacting Kingdom-advancing ministries. The Barnabas Group’s mission is to see Christians use their marketplace talents to advance the Gospel.Becky graduated Mercer University in Macon, Georgia with a degree in Communications and, for now, God has called Becky to walk in the gift of singleness.
