    Thanks for the conversation, Ben Fanning. It was great to share how we’re driving Advance Auto Parts’ comeback by staying focused on what matters most: our customers and the team members who serve them.

    Go See. When Shane O'Kelly, President & CEO of Advance Auto Parts, arrived at the $11 billion company, he didn't start in the boardroom. He started in the stores. That simple decision changed everything. Most leaders think they know what's happening from reports. Shane believes vital credibility and knowledge are earned somewhere else. On this episode of Lead the Team, he shares why leaders become "tourists," why the front line often sees the truth before dashboards do, and the leadership philosophy that's helping reshape one of America's most recognizable retail brands. His story goes to show that the best answers are usually found closest to the customer. What's the most important thing you've learned that never showed up in a report?

  • Advance team members partnered with USO to create care packages for active‑duty service members. The packages — filled with toiletries and popular snacks from home — are being distributed by USO teams to U.S. service members on bases, ships and in remote locations. Giving back to those who serve is one of the ways we act with purpose and show up for our team and the communities we serve. #InspireServeGrow

  • Ryan Blaney and Team Penske helped us debut our new “Good Parts” campaign this weekend at the Cracker Barrel 400 in Nashville with the No. 12 car featuring our new Americana paint scheme. The design pays tribute to America’s 250th birthday and nearly a century of Advance supporting generations of motorists, from the earliest days of the open road to today’s DIYers and professionals. Adding to the excitement, we hosted more than 200 fans at our Murfreesboro, Tenn., store to meet Blaney and get a first look at the new paint scheme before it hit the track. Special thanks to all the hardworking teams who made the event a success. What are your thoughts on the new design? Let us know in the comments.
