Ryan Cohen is the CEO and Chairman of GameStop Corp., appointed in late September 2023. He previously served as the Executive Chairman and knows the gaming industry well, having also co-founded Chewy, a popular online pet food retailer, where he was at the helm from 2018 until 2019. One interesting aspect of Cohen's leadership is his hands-off compensation approach; in 2023, he received no salary, bonus, or stock grants. This reflects his focus on long-term performance and shareholder interests rather than short-term financial gain. Cohen's significant involvement in the companies he leads, combined with his entrepreneurial spirit, drives innovation and adaptive strategies. He gained considerable recognition for his role in revitalizing Chewy, leading it to a successful IPO.
