THOMKE DANIELA BEYERSDORFER LEGO On March 18, 2011, Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, CEO of the LEGO Group, strode out of the cafeteria at company headquarters in Billund, Denmark, and turned right into the packaging area. He had just witnessed a discussion between Bali Padda, Executive VP of Global Supply Chain, and Mads Nipper, Executive VP of Markets & Products, that had ended without clear decisions. Knudstorp wanted Padda and Nipper to know that he was available to help with the decisions if necessary. Known among families worldwide for its iconic brick-based toys, the LEGO Group was privately held by the Kirk Kristiansen founding family and had been committed since its early days to developing the imaginations of children. A rocky decade had culminated in a near-death experience in 2004, but the Group had gotten back on track under Knudstorp’s leadership. Between 2004 and 2010, the Group’s revenue had grown by 165% in a stagnant global toy market, making it the world’s fourth largest traditional toy maker. By 2010, its return on invested capital soared above 160%. (See Exhibits 1 and 2 for selected financials and the company’s organization.) Padda and Nipper had started their annual negotiations on how many new components product designers would have available for their new products. (A “component” was a LEGO® brick of a particular shape in a specific color or with a specific decoration.) Since the 2004 crisis, LEGO Group leaders had tightly controlled the component count; setting the next target was always difficult.

  • Innovating Organization and Management
    Innovating Organization and Management The search for competitive advantage serves as the basis for organizational strategy. This book highlights four key points in the analysis of competitive advantage and financial success that have not been given the attention they deserve: First, that organizational design and management processes may be strategic resources in their own right; second, that organizational design and management processes can be deployed to create new strategic resources; third, that managers have begun to think of organizational design and management processes in a proactive way rather than seeing them more passively as necessary facilitators of success; and, fourth, that this new way of looking at organization and management requires a search for new ways of structuring organizational design and managerial processes. These points are driven home through case studies of the Danish firms LEGO Group, Vestas Wind Systems, Coloplast, Chr. Hansen, IC Companys, and NKT Flexibles. nicolai j. foss is Professor of Organization and Strategy at the Copenhagen Business School and Professor of Knowledge-based Value Creation at the Norwegian School of Economics. torben pedersen is Professor of International Business at the Department of Strategic Management and Globalization at the Copenhagen Business School. jacob pyndt works for Nordea, a leading Nordic-based pan-European bank, where he is involved with business strategy issues with a primary focus on the outsourcing of functions and processes. majken schultz is Professor at the Department of Organization at the Copenhagen Business School, International Research Fellow at the Centre for Corporate Reputation, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, and senior advisor to the Reputation Institute.

    Conquering New Markets Through Military Strategy How the LEGO Company Will Conquer the Middle Kingdom Master’s thesis, MSc in International Business Copenhagen Business School, 15. September 2016 ______________________________________________ Marie Elver Windekilde Supervisor: Nicolai Pogrebnyakov Number of pages and characters: 76,9 pages (174.773) My appreciations to Lea Halby, for creating the graphic design for the models presented in the paper. Further, I wish to extent my gratitude to Captain Dan Elver Windekilde, for sharing his knowledge on military strategy, and Laura Matthiesen from the LEGO Group, from whom I learned the most important lessons about LEGO. Finally, I wish to acknowledge Associate Professor Nicolai Pogrebnyakov of the Department of International Economics and Management, for his continuous guidance and support. 0. Executive Summary It is said that in war, one must consider three things: the situation, the opponent and the terrain. For centuries then, generals have incorporated thorough analysis of the battle space with swift actions during the fog of war (Clausewitz, 1993). This paper thus seeks to discover how military strategic paradigms can be used to formulate a new eclectic framework that informs strategy formulation in international business. This is done by exploring a military paradigm as presented in NATO´s ‘Comprehensive Operations Planning Directive’ (COPD, 2010). The paradigm is used across the international military society, and the framework therefore arguably represents one of the most tested and modern approaches within the field. It provides a framework that based on a systemic approach to analysis and an effects-based approach to operations supports decision-makers to analyse strategic challenges and formulate appropriate causes of action within the frames of the competitive terrain.
