This week on The Nordy Pod, our host Pete Nordstrom talks to someone who knows our business inside and out — Robert Spector, author of a book series called “The Nordstrom Way.” After starting his career as a journalist, Robert learned about our reputation for customer service and wanted to learn more. Fast forward to today, and Robert has written five books about the evolution of our business over the years. “The Nordstrom Way” has sold hundreds of thousands of copies, and Robert has given talks about our business principles in over 30 countries. Robert shared with Pete the main learnings from his books, stories about our past leaders, and the lessons he teaches other companies about our customer-centric approach. Tune in, and be sure to check out Robert’s books, including his most recent, called “The Century-Old Startup.” https://bit.ly/3AnSXw4
