ScaleApp Podcasts with Prof Dan Isenberg
Episode #38 - Robert Wessman - Master of Scale
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I have been writing cases about entrepreneurs since 2005 - close to 50 HBS cases published. None is so interesting as the three cases I (some with my HBS colleague, Bill Kerr) I have written on Robert Wessman, 57, Icelandic, founder of SEVERAL multi-billion dollar companies - Actavis (formerly ACT) is now one of the top three generics companies IN THE WORLD. Alvotech (ALVO) is one of the leading biosimilars makers.
Robert has scale-up down-pat as a well-honed, time-tested system:
- Start with a CLEAR and CONFIRMED CONVICTION, one that is often CONTRARIAN.
- Surround yourself with a CORE of COMMITTED COLLEAGUES.
- Build a CULTURE and CAPACITY based on COMPETENCE, COLLABORATION
- COMPETE to win.
- COORDINATE behavior through a rigorous management system.
