The thesis

Why this org is unusual

Store operations and merchandising dominate The Home Depot’s structure, with the CEO’s most influential direct reports running U.S.

stores and core product categories. The org is clearly functional, with no separate divisional presidents for regions or banners; instead, power is concentrated in centralized merchandising, operations, and digital teams.
