Stephanie Linnartz, President & CEO of Under Armour

On this episode of Walker Webcast, Willy was once again joined by Stephanie Linnartz. Since she was last on the webcast in 2021, she made a major career change, from President of Mariott to President and Chief Executive Officer of Under Armour.  According to Stephanie, “I decided to take my own advice – to bet on myself and take a chance. That’s what led me to this job.”  She and Willy discussed similarities and differences between running Mariott and Under Armour, the company’s new focus on the female athlete, Under Armour’s brand loyalty program, the “Taylor Swift Effect” on sports apparel brands, the company’s focus on social impact and organizations they’re partnering with, advice she’d give to female professionals, and what we can expect to see from Under Armour in the years to come.
