Hanneke Faber
Logitech, CEO
EPISODE 278
Co-create with your team
How do you get 7,000 people aligned on a new strategy? Ask Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber, who pulled it off in just 24 hours.
The former Dutch national diving champion (yes, really) knows that the best strategies aren’t handed down from above. They’re co-created with the people who’ll bring them to life. And at Logitech, the results speak for themselves: eight consecutive quarters of growth and record margins.
In this episode, Hanneke shares how she pulled off a 24-hour strategy sprint, why she tells her team “today is the slowest day of the rest of your life,” and what diving from 33 feet in the air taught her about leadership courage.
You’ll also learn:
- How to make your brand sexy (yes, even if you sell mice and keyboards)
- One popular (but uncommon) employee perk you’ll want to steal
- A powerful framework for balancing work, family, and everything else without burning out
- Non-cringey ways to create shared experiences for your team
