Video: Reviving Lego and Leadership
This is an interview with Jorgen Vig Knudstorp, the person responsible for reviving the Lego franchise. It is a great discussion on how he approached the flailing Lego brand, what he did to turn the ship around, and what it takes to be a business leader.
My favorite quote and something I have been thinking about alot as I work for a company with a lot of mature business lines, "...Do you take responsibility or do you blame it on some external factor like currency, or financial crisis, or poor weather because if that's your major reason for how your business develops, what the hell are you doing in the job?". So true.
You will need to create an account to see the full video, but I highly recommend it. I watched a few videos on the site and they are very well done. The interviewer asks some very insightful and well researched questions.
