Jarrett Reed describes himself as a “corporate placemaker,” which hints at his broad approach to the role a store like Target can play in a community. Newly promoted to a strategy and operations role, he’s responsible for store displays and experience, but with his background in corporate responsibility, he also focuses on the intersection of business and community. That spills into his volunteer work as a new board member for Springboard for the Arts. He is also a member of the Minneapolis Downtown Council’s 2035 planning committee. Whether at a store or in a city, Reed says he’s driven to build inclusive spaces where “people feel good.”
