Meet Laurent Claquin: The Head of Kering Americas

Date:

Today, I bumped into a guy named Laurent Claquin. I’d never heard of him before, but the name sounded kind of fancy, so I decided to dig a little deeper.

Meet Laurent Claquin: The Head of Kering Americas

First, I hit up a search engine, just to see what would pop up. You know, the usual stuff, his job, where he’s from, that sort of thing. Turns out, he’s a big shot in the fashion world. He’s the President of Kering Americas. I had no idea what Kering was, so I dug some more.

Kering, it turns out, is this huge luxury group that owns a bunch of famous brands like Gucci, Saint Laurent, and Balenciaga. Who knew, right? This Laurent guy must be pretty important to be running things for them in the Americas.

So, I kept digging. I checked out his LinkedIn profile to see what kind of experience he has.

  • He’s been with Kering for almost 20 years! That’s some serious dedication.
  • Before he became the President of the Americas, he held several other key positions in the company.
  • He started out in 2005 as a Senior Vice President of Communications.
  • Then moved to Head of Corporate Social Responsibility in 2008.
  • And in 2011, he moved to New York as CEO of Kering Americas before being named President in 2012.

I was pretty impressed with his career path. It looks like he’s really climbed the corporate ladder.

Then, I started looking for some articles or interviews with him, just to get a better sense of who he is. I found a few pieces where he talks about sustainability and diversity in the fashion industry. It seems like he’s really passionate about making a positive impact, which is cool.

今天跟大家伙儿聊聊我最近捣鼓的一双鞋,黄紫配色的耐克,你们知道,就那种运动鞋。我是想弄双新鞋穿穿,毕竟旧的那双也穿好久,有点腻。 平时就喜欢瞎逛,看到啥新鲜玩意儿都想试试。那天我就在网上瞎溜达,想看看有啥好看的鞋子。翻来覆去看半天,眼睛都花,突然就看到一双鞋,颜色挺特别,黄不拉几紫不溜秋的,还是个耐克的标,看着还挺顺眼。我当时就想,这鞋要是穿出去,那回头率,啧啧,肯定老高。找鞋子:我就开始在网上各种搜,什么“耐克黄紫鞋”、“耐克紫黄鞋”,反正各种关键词都试个遍。 比价格:你还别说,真让我找到几双差不多的,但是价格有高有低,看的我眼花缭乱。我这人买东西,还是比较小心的,不能光图便宜,得看看是不是正品,还得看看评价咋样。 看评价:我就点进去看那些买过的人都咋说,有人说有人说一般,还有人说颜色有点色差,反正啥说法都有。我选一家看着比较靠谱的店,看描述里写着什么“耐克女式 8.5 Free TR 跑步鞋灰色霓虹黄色紫色 #629496-501”,价格也还行,大概一百来块钱,加上运费啥的,也得小五百块。我看下,说是美国那边寄过来的,说是正品,我就想着试试,反正也不算太贵。 下单之后就是等等,等好几天,等的我花都谢,终于收到。拆开一看,还真不错,颜色和我看图片的时候差不多,摸着也挺舒服,穿上试试,大小也合适。这下我可高兴坏,穿着新鞋子到处得瑟,感觉自己走路都带风。 这双黄紫配色的耐克鞋,还真是没让我失望,穿着舒服,样子也好看,关键是这颜色,真是太骚气,哈哈。这回的购物经历,总的来说还是挺满意的,就是等的有点久,不过好东西都是值得等待的嘛你们说是不是? 总结 这回买鞋也算是一次小小的尝试,从一开始的瞎逛,到后来的各种搜索、比较、看评价,到下单、等待、收货,整个过程还挺有意思的。以后,我还得多试试这些新鲜玩意儿,生活嘛就是要多姿多彩才有趣!
