Lululemon, the athletic apparel giant, has named Heidi O'Neill as its new CEO, according to the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday. O'Neill, who previously held an executive position at Nike, is tasked with reversing falling sales and rejuvenating the brand's design aesthetics.

O'Neill's appointment comes at a crucial time for Lululemon, as the company seeks to address ongoing tensions between its founder and the board. The board hopes O'Neill's experience at Nike will lend a fresh perspective to the company.
