KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Effective leadership during challenging times, such as a pandemic, involves breaking down overwhelming situations into manageable parts. Staying focused on outcomes and maintaining a positive demeanour can help guide teams through adversity.
• Authenticity is crucial for successful leadership. Being true to oneself and leading in a way that aligns with personal values fosters trust and engagement within teams.
• The cultural differences between running businesses in Sweden and the UK are discussed, noting that Scandinavian leadership often emphasises consensus and early adoption of digitalisation, which can influence decision-making processes.
• The journey of building a brand or business involves constant evolution and adaptation. Embracing change, learning from experiences, and being open to new ideas are essential for long-term success and sustainability.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you can let everybody be at their best level, if you can get everybody to express themselves in the most natural way, that ultimately must be better."

"Luxury is limited by definition. Luxury is limited. It's personalised. And it's changed fundamentally from 10 years ago to what is luxury now."

"I never thought that 10 men in the boardroom is equal as bad as 10 women in the boardroom."

"Profit is not a dirty word. If we don't make profit, we don't have a business and we don't have people employed."
