The thesis

Why this org is unusual

Interim co-CEO governance places the CFO, Meghan Frank, as the principal executive officer while operational leadership is shared with Andre Maestrini.

This creates an unusual power balance where finance and operations jointly anchor strategy. The structure remains otherwise functional, with technology, brand, and regional presidents reporting directly to the interim CEO. The arrangement is explicitly temporary ahead of Heidi O’Neill’s arrival in September 2026.
  • Interim co-CEO model
  • CFO as principal executive officer

The comparison

How lululemon athletica inc. stacks up

Compared with Nike, Adidas, and VF Corp, lululemon’s interim co-CEO structure is atypical. Most peers maintain a single CEO with a COO or regional presidents beneath them. Lululemon’s approach reflects a transition period following Calvin McDonald’s departure and ahead of Heidi O’Neill’s start.
