Essential business lessons from the maverick who helped make LEGO the biggest toy brand in the world.
As Chief Operations Officer at LEGO from 2005, and in earlier
operational roles from 2003, Bali Padda played a decisive role in
the recovery and growth of this iconic toy firm. Bali and his
colleagues executed a remarkable turnaround, from a near-terminal
crisis to a return to profit within 18 months. In 2016, Bali was
asked to step in as CEO of the LEGO Group while a search for a new
CEO was initiated, becoming the company's first non-Danish CEO.
Currently, Bali Padda is a highly sought-after business adviser,
appointed by tech entrepreneur Tony Fadell as mentor to CEOs of
start-up companies in which he has invested.
Full of timeless, insightful and essential business strategy with
great stories ... Bali knows how to keep a successful company
firing
*Tony Fadell, inventor of the iPod and bestselling author*
Every day I think about how Bali would do things. My company is
100% run in the Bali Padda style
*Niels Duedahl, CEO, Norlys*
Bali Padda's mind and writing shed light on some of the most
complex challenges faced by organizations. There are two kinds of
leaders: those who ask for clarity, and those who bring clarity.
Today we need more of the latter. Bali Padda stands out in this
rare category.
*Yves Morieux, Managing Director and Senior Partner, Boston
Consulting Group (BCG)*
An amazing book about how mastering the supply chain became a
fundamental pillar to save LEGO and to make it a formidable
company. It is probably the most needed book today for companies
facing unprecedented supply chain disruptions.
*Carlos Cordon, IMD Professor of Strategy and Supply Chain
Management*
