Speaking at ‘the Strategy & Hiring’ Panel of Stanton Chase International

Matching Strategy with Board & C-Suite Hiring 

I spoke in the “Strategy & Hiring: Matching Strategy with Board and C Suite Hiring” Panel Session of the International Partners Meeting of Stanton Chase International. Other speakers were Jeff Johnson, the President of Boeing Middle East; Tayfun Bayazit, the Chairman of Marsh McLennan; and Çağrı Alkaya, Managing Partner, Stanton Chase Turkey. I talked about different executive profiles that are required for global and corporate companies going through different phases and hints on how to recruit and train professionals within the frame of long term vision and strategy.

Kon - Tiki

First day at film festival, first bang. Kon-tiki, story of Thor Heyerdahl and his crew passing the ocean managed to stop me on my tracks. Heyerdahl had a belief and he set out to prove people from south america came to populate the west indies fifteen hundred years ago. And he does that on a raft made with wood and ropes in a journey that takes him across the Pacific from Peru to Tahiti for more than hundred days.

There are two parts to the story I cherished deeply. First part is the journey itself; this sect of people like myself who cant stop their insatiable need to explore and see and ask questions in the oddest parts of the world until there is no mountain left to be hiked; no city to be explored; no land or geography to be experienced; no climate to battle with. Those of us who have the desire to persevere the why and the when and the who got to create the cultural spatial mixes tucked between pieces of earth; a soup of archaeology, anthropology, history, geology, immigration, genetics, earth sciences and simply the rocks or the sand dunes. Thor the Norwegian gets on the raft and sails away to the mountain height waves and the whales and sharks of the Pacific.

And the board meets at Legoland!

 Lego headquarters is in Billund, Denmark. A real cold, cold piece of land on the mainland of Denmark, I actually think it is close to Arctic but I was warned by my European colleagues that it was only close to the north sea. Out of our two days business meetings we actually had few hours to combine the amazing innovative Lego approach to the discussions we had and  actually had FUN.
