Burberry, what a great brand, and what a disaster the years have been. I wrote about it in my book: The Interaction Field that published in 2020, Chapter 9. Business books are written on successes but I predicted that their strategy will fail. And it did. Not that I was the only one who wrote about the failure of strategy and leadership. But how there seems to be new life in this brand, I do hope, what a great brand. https://lnkd.in/e_Bhf3AX

Let's approach our business goals with the same attention to detail and boldness.

‘Paul Dekalb,’ the chief executive of a German apparel company, took issue with making “addressability” a key constraint on strategy. “If we only look at what is addressable right now, we will forgo the long term. Out strategy is to create real differentiation—truly distinct positions in the market. And, we have to have the patience to invest in true transformation—developing new capabilities.” Rumelt, Richard. The Crux (p. 75). #strategy

In the fashion industry, having an entrepreneurial leader with a strong background in fashion is essential for several reasons. First, it enables effective communication between the entrepreneur and the design team. Understanding design principles, trends, and the creative process allows for more productive collaboration, ensuring that the vision for the brand is clearly articulated and executed. Entrepreneurs with fashion expertise are better equipped to make informed decisions about product development, marketing strategies, and brand positioning. They can identify emerging trends and respond to shifts in consumer preferences, which is crucial in such a fast paced industry. A leader who understands the nuances of fashion can inspire and motivate their team. They can provide valuable insights, mentor emerging designers, and create an environment that fosters creativity and innovation. This not only helps in attracting top talent but also in retaining it, as a strong culture of collaboration and creativity is built. Having a foundation in fashion allows entrepreneurs to navigate challenges more effectively. Whether it’s dealing with supply chain issues, adapting to sustainability demands, or managing seasonal collections, a strong understanding of the fashion segment equips them to tackle these obstacles with greater confidence. Entrepreneurs in the fashion industry should come from a fashion background to ensure they can lead effectively, make informed decisions, inspire their teams, and navigate the unique challenges of the industry. This alignment between business acumen and creative vision is vital for long term success. #fashion #industry #entrepreneurial #leader #strong #background #essential #effective #communication #design #team #alignment #business #acumen #creative #vital #success.
