Nate Baxter, ScottsMiracle-Gro“I love technology, but I also love strategy. In Ohio, where ScottsMiracle-Gro is based, he and his wife live in a condo and tend to their indoor plants. When Baxter arrived and took stock of the challenges facing the company, he saw the chance to drive a tech transformation. Internally, ScottsMiracle-Gro now uses AI to better understand sales patterns and to better match inventory levels with consumer demand. As president and COO, Baxter focuses on showing how technology, and the change it brings, can drive tangible results.
