Our world, now
and ahead..

It’s a Global World…


Princess Diana's death.
An English princess
with an Egyptian boyfriend
crashes in a French tunnel,
driving a German car
with a Dutch engine,
driven by a Belgian who was drunk
on Scottish whisky,
followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,
on Japanese motorcycles;
treated by an American doctor,
using Brazilian medicines.
and you're probably reading this on your computer,
that use Taiwanese chips,
and a Korean monitor,
assembled by Bangladeshi workers
in a Singapore plant,
That, my friend, is Globalization

“A borderless,
invisible, cyber-
connected, ”
Kenichi Ohmae, 2005. The Next Global Stage

“The surplus
society”
has a surplus of similar companies, employing similar people, with
similar educational backgrounds, working in similar jobs, coming up
with similar ideas, producing similar things, with similar prices and
similar quality.”

with magnitude and frequency getting bigger

Management Efficiency (1970) Economy (1985) Revolution Issues

A World of Competition…
• The surplus society
• A borderless world…globalization
• Competitive advantages easily become
standard industry (imitating, substitution,
technology growth)
• Demanding customer, selective, less loyal
and more well-informed

need in that kind of
circumstances?

First of all, is the
leader who aware
that leadership is not
only about leaders…

“Romance of leadership”

will not be able to do their bad actions
without bad followers…”

Followers are (also)


important!
• The role of the followers is changing and
followers gain more power

• Followers influence leader’s behavior,


styles, performance

• Leadership is about leaders and about


the followers

10
Critical success factors
for top leadership jobs?

# 1 : Relationships with
subordinates
Center for Creative Leadership, 2005

Leadership is a relationship
and a process
• Leadership is depend not
only on leader…it is also
depend on followers and
situation
Leaders
• Different followers and
different situation need
different leadership styles
• A great leaders are not only
about leadership style or
type, but also understanding
who are their followers and
Followers Situation
what situation they are
facing

Then those leaders
need to posses basic
competencies

Kazuo Inamori
Your success = Ability x Effort x Attitude

“when I talked with many leaders, I find


that most of them agree with my concept
of ability and effort…ironically, it is easy to
forget the attitude, which I consider to be
the most important of the three..there is
nothing more dangerous than an
hardworking genius with a criminal mind”

On Failure…Why Give Up?


The question is asked over and over again. How was it possible for a young boy born
into poverty in a log cabin in the backwoods of Kentucky with little formal education to
rise up and become the 16th President of the United States, and perhaps America’s
greatest President ever?

The Moment of Crisis
• Crisis give a great chance to
the leaders to be followed,
loved, by their followers
• On the moment of crisis,
people need somebody who
stand up and show his/her
effort to solve it
• Rudy Giuliani, Former of New
York Major, proof it during 9/11
tragedy

“When you start confronting the crisis, you start to


solve it…Hope is not a strategy”
Rudy Giuliani
Former Major of New York City at 9/11 Tragedy

And of course the strategy..

There are thousands of


coffeehouses in the United
States and coffee is one of
the most commonly
traded commodities in the
world. Why is there only
one Starbucks?
(In 2004, Starbucks did $5.3B in sales. It has
more than 8,500 locations in 30 countries)

For Vertu, the


strategy is
expensiveness
I am selling expensiveness…
if it is not expensive, people
won’t buy it
