The Foreigners At The Top Of Lg

摘要

LG Electronics Chiet Executive Nam Yong and his chief marketing officer,rnDermot Boden, had just wrapped up a stormy strategy meeting. Tempers had flared-a rarity in a Korean company, where consensus and "face" are paramount. After the meeting this autumn, Nam said: "You know, we argue a lot." Boden was worried thatrnhe might have crossed a line that, as an Irishman working in Seoul, he hadn't recognized. Nam then took a few steps, turned back toward Boden, and added: "Why don't we argue more often?"
