Femme Nike Air Max 90 Knight

Nike Air Max Rose Nike (NYSE:NKE) has been a top player in the sports-product market for most of the past few decades, growing from its humble roots in 1964 to become the athletic behemoth it is today, posting $28 billion in sales in fiscal 2014 and holding more than 50% market share in the United States. Nike went public in 1980, and under co-founder Phil Knight's tenure as CEO and then as chairman, the stock has soared more than 32,000% in those 35 years.

The legendary entrepreneur behind Nike's success is founder Phil Knight, who started the company when he was just 25 and oversaw its growth for decades. Even though he stepped down as CEO nearly 10 years ago, he has remained an active leader as chairman of the board of directors. Now, at 77 years old, Knight is stepping down as chairman next year and retiring from an active leadership role. Is the company's future in question without Knight's guidance?

Femme Nike Air Max 90 Knight started his college career as a track and field athlete at The University of Oregon and moved on to Stanford for graduate school (MBA '62). After traveling to Japan and being impressed by the quality of athletic shoes he saw manufactured there, he returned to the states to team up with his former track coach to sell running shoes.

Nike Air Max Femme That company was initially called Blue Ribbon Sports, but in 1972 the name was changed to Nike, after the Greek goddess of victory. After a few years of hustling and selling shoes out of his car, a few well-timed endorsements, and finally national and then international attention, Nike grew by leaps and bounds to become the world's largest athletic-apparel company. Knight has now been at the helm of Nike for nearly 50 years, and he's ready to step down and let the company evolve without him. www.lavente21.fr
