I found this video on the Laissez-Faire Books blog after Jeff Tucker posted it recently.
It?s an entertaining and educational video that provides anecdotes about how and why small businesses grow. In the case of LEGO, because they had to? the owner-operator of the company had no golden parachute to fall back on if he failed. This kept him thinking creatively about how to solve the many challenges he and his business faced. It was ?find a way? or else he and his children would starve.
It?s a story of entrepreneurialism, the essence of which is experimentation, vision and constant change.
As you watch the video, it?s hard to imagine a story like this being told about anything other than an initially small, local, privately-owned business. It perfectly captures the idea of the ?benevolent dictatorship? style of business and capital management. We also get a look at the innovative process that leads to the creation of a whole new industry (or sub-industry, much like the iPhone was an emergent sub-industry within the industry of smartphones).
