Background

About Patrick Skelding

As a Store Director at Target, I lead a team of over 300 employees across various departments, such as human resources, property management, asset protection, and product operations. I have a Human Resources Management Certificate from eCornell and over four years of experience in managing talent development, employee relations, compliance, and succession planning. I am passionate about driving operational efficiency, cost savings, and customer satisfaction through data-driven analysis, process improvement, and cross-functional collaboration. I have successfully reduced turnover, enhanced reporting tools, and increased operational savings by 30%. I am also a peer leader within the district, supporting multiple stores, leaders, and outside business interests. My goal is to leverage my retail management expertise and HR competencies to create a positive and productive work environment for my team and my company.
