IKEA's Former CEO: Every Job Counts, Even the Bad Ones
- 7 years ago
Pernille Lopez, the former CEO of IKEA North America and Founder of Good Life Designed, sits down to tell us about starting from the bottom.. now she's here. "No matter what, we have to do a good job. You have to roll up your sleeves and start from the bottom."
Pernille tells us about the importance of doing a good job in any and every type of job, and how early jobs can play a major role in your future success. She was a dishwasher at a hotel, she cleaned horse poop, she was a 'failed journalist,' and then when her business went down she took a $5 sales job in Miami. That sales job ultimately led her to where she is today.
