Dunn is a product of, and curator of, a distinct Best Buy field culture that has fueled and continues to fuel the company's success. He is convinced that in order for Best Buy to be genuinely great, it must be built on a foundation of shared, unbreakable principles. Dunn has utilized his expanding influence to ensure that Best Buy continues to prioritize these values: having fun while being the best; showing respect, humility, and honesty; learning from adversity and change, and unleashing the potential of people. Dunn has also pushed the corporation to reject the generic bureaucracy that frequently comes with ambitious expansion. Long-term Best Buy employees have developed a deep commitment to the firm as a result of the effective maintenance of these characteristics, as well as an organizational ability to adjust to rapid change swiftly and favorably. Dunn's experience working from the ground up has given him a unique perspective on how a business operates. He feels that the rich history of the people who have helped to shape Best Buy into what it is today is worth sharing.
