Bernard Arnault's Quote:
One of Arnault’s greatest strengths in creating some of the world’s biggest brands has been to hire raw design talents like Galliano at Dior, Alexander McQueen at Givenchy and Marc Jacobs at Louis Vuitton. (He also tapped Karl Lagerfeld to run Fendi and, most recently, he chose ex-Chloé design chief Phoebe Philo to revive Celine.) He then gives them enough space to express their creative potential even if—as with Dior—the results can be a roller coaster of successes and failures.
I like that combination between creativity and the creative process and the organization needed to make a business like this successful worldwide.
I think in business, you have to learn to be patient. Maybe I'm not very patient myself. And I think what I've learned the most is be able to wait for something and get it when it's the right time.
