    Managing a Multi Brand Conglomerate


    Luxury brands must foster and appreciation and tolerance for creativity that is unconstrained by commercial or production constraints. If you think and act like a typical manager around creative people- with rules policies, data on customer preferences, and so forth- you will quickly kill their talent (Bernard Arnault) On the contrarary, bernard is also a profit centric leader. Poor performing brands are threatened to be sold off.
