Chuck Eichten
My career has been devoted to communication.
Trying to connect with people. How to interest them. Motivate them. Inspire them. Provoke them. To do better? To enjoy what they do? To understand? To give voice to what they believe?
I’m an author. An artist. A designer. A cynic. An optimist. A storyteller. And above all, a good listener.
Twenty plus years in design at Nike, encompassing global product, marketing, retail, communication, heritage archives storytelling and workplace environments provided the opportunity to work with and learn from fabulously creative people, taught me the value of a truly authentic voice, and exposed the power of connecting emotionally and honestly with audiences.
Diverse experiences and skills, and the best partners, helped me create spaces around the world that welcome unique individuals and connect teams. Once, it was nice to have— an inspired workplace that evoked mission and purpose. Now, it is critical to a high performing and engaged team from diverse backgrounds.
I love a good story, and I’d love to hear yours.
