which focuses on a different sport or product category, such as running,
cycling, or camping. Each business unit is led by a Business Unit Manager
(BUM), who is accountable for the unit's overall performance.

4. Departments: Each business unit has several departments, such as product

design, sourcing, marketing, and logistics, each of which is led by a
department head who is in charge of managing the team and ensuring that
the department meets its objectives.

5. Project Teams: Because Decathlon places a strong emphasis on teamwork

and collaboration, project teams are formed around specific projects or
initiatives and are made up of members from various departments and
business units. This approach promotes greater innovation and cross-
