The Lego case study, the great turnaround 2003 - 2013John Ashcroft
In presenting his report to management in June 2003, Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, then head of strategic development had pulled no punches, “We are on a burning platform, losing money with negative cash flow and a real risk of debt default which could lead to a break up of the company. In 2013, LEGO reported profits of $1.5 bn on sales of $4.5 bn. Quite a turnaround! Here's how.
5. Ole Kirk Christiansen was born on February 7, 1891 in a village called Filskov. He was
the tenth and youngest child of Jens Niels Christiansen. In 1911, he left his birth
country of Denmark and went to Germany and Norway to be a carpenter. He
returned to Denmark 5 years later and bought the Billund Maskinsnedkeri og
Tømreforretning.
6. In 1932, after losing his job, Mr. Christiansen began making wooden toys and
established LEGO. The first toy released from LEGO was a wooden duck which he
loved so much. He made versions of houses and buildings like he worked on
when he was a carpenter. But in 1947, LEGO made an enourmous leap from
wood to plastic as it still is today.
7. Christiansen had made over 200 plastic and wooden toys by 1949. In 1920, his son
Godtfred was born. He came up with the name Lego from the Danish
leg godt ("play well") and the company grew to become the Lego Group.
8. In 1958, at the age of 66, Ole Kirk Christiansen, the man who discovered LEGO
more than 20 years ago, died of a heart attack. His son Godtfred took over the
company after he died. Ole was buried in Grene Churchyard in Billund,
Denmark. Godtfred died in 1995 and HIS son took over. But now, there are
hundreds of LEGO Stores and sets.
