Abstract
CarMax became the US s leading used car dealer by providing a great customer experience in an industry known for bad experiences. Around 2015 the company embarked on a digital transformation that evolved into a vision for an omni-channel business model. This case reviews the company s transformation journey, highlighting its adoption of empowered teams and two-in-a-box management approaches. The case observes how the company s transformation helped it respond to the COVID-19 crisis and positioned CarMax for sustained growth.
