These are my notes and take aways from John Maxwell’s interview of Angela Ahrendts, the CEO of Burberry.

• Culture trumps vision
• Trust is needed to make change
• The task of leadership is to create culture
• Building a culture of mission focus keeps ego at bay
• Intuition is the greatest output of trust and strong culture
• Burberry values feeling over knowing
• “I grew up in a physical world speaking English, but my kids are growing up in a digital world speaking social”
• Building a culture of trust frees people to act on their leadership intuition which results in innovation and the ability to move at a fast pace
