While GameStop Corp is gearing up to get a facelift from being a brick-and-mortar video game retailer to an e-commerce firm, sources say that it is looking for a new chief executive to replace George Sherman.
It would be the biggest shakeup at GameStop since Ryan Cohen, the co-founder and former chief executive of online pet food company Chewy Inc, joined its board in January.
GameStop’s board is working with an executive headhunter on the CEO search, the sources said, requesting anonymity because the matter is confidential.
