With more than a decade of senior-level career experience in Profit & Loss Management, Change Management, Strategic Planning and Training & Development, Atlanta-based Tracey Lloyd has become an innovator and leadership trailblazer within the retail sector; first Walmart’s corporate pantheon and now Bloomingdale’s. Prior to her career in retail, she has a lofty record of service with the United States Military.

Within three months, tracey was promoted from battalion to brigade level. She has also served as a U.S. army reserves Company Commander.

The last few years have been exciting for Tracey: Fortune magazine featured Tracey on its cover in a story about “The new warrior elite: A decade of war has created a new generation of business leaders.” Bloomingdale’s recognized Tracey’s charismatic and visionary leadership style, her ability to turn around businesses, and create/leverage innovation. At the start of the year, she was recruited and currently serves as the Operating Vice President and general manager of the Lenox location.
