The discount retailer divulged back in June that it would restructure its executive leadership team to support the company’s growth. Since then, the company has filled a number of key position like CFO, COO and chief development officer.
“As we continue to build our leadership team capability and focus intently on culture, compliance and ESG, I’m pleased to announce the additions of Jennifer Bohaty, Terence Goods, Jennifer Silberman and Kristin Tetreault to the Dollar Tree team,” said Mike Witynski, president and CEO. “These important additions demonstrate our company’s commitment to improving the experiences of our shoppers and building an engaging culture of belonging for our associates.”

Bohaty’s prior retail experience includes stints as executive director of global product safety, quality and compliance with Toys ‘R’ Us and senior product safety manager at Target. She received her bachelor of arts in psychology, with an emphasis on management, from Saint Louis University.
Goods was most recently VP of diversity and inclusion at Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits, a U.S. wine distributor included on Forbes’ list of Best Employers for Diversity in 2022. A human resources leader with more than 20 years of experience, Goods has a passion for talent acquisition, training, and diversity and inclusion programs.
