A few weeks ago I was privileged to present at the CEO Summit on the importance of company culture. Particularly popular were LEGO’s insightful 11 Paradoxes of Management, one of three sets of principles set out in the History section of the wonderful LEGO House in Billund, Denmark. I will write more about those in the future, but I promised to cover the others.
Today I want to talk about what is called 10 Important Demands for a LEGO Effort. Despite the clumsy name, these are brilliant rules for any undertaking. They are:
Be objective and truthful
Be positive and unpretentious
Be economical
Be international
Evoke enthusiasm and inspire
Encourage imagination and activity
Observe characteristics
Company concerns ahead of personal interests
Complete every task
Act according to company philosophy
Many fundamental truths in here, and it seems to me they should be naturally respected by anybody with a sound moral compass. Alas we’ve all come across people who are clearly drifting without a clear understanding other than their own aggrandisement.
