Nike CEO Mark Parker explained the theme “The Consumer Decides”:
“The Consumer Decides is one of Nike's 11 maxims that really define who we are and how we compete as a company.
Today, consumers have never held as much power as they do today. They have more choices and more access to those choices. They connect and collaborate with each other over the world. … Clearly, the power has shifted to consumers.
The ability we have to connect with consumers is the single most important competitive advantage in business today.”
