RAPAPORT... J.C. Penney has appointed Karl Walsh as chief digital
officer, charging him with overseeing improvements to its e-commerce platforms and customer experience.
Walsh was
previously chief digital officer at Danish jeweler Pandora, a role he took on
in March. He also worked at Boston Consulting Group and McKinsey & Company. He began at J.C. Penney on December 2, reporting to executive vice president and chief customer officer Shawn Gensch.
“Nearly 90 percent of shoppers begin their path to purchase
online, so Karl’s background of building and executing digital strategies for
global brands will help us improve our e-commerce offering and drive traffic
across all channels,” said Gensch.
