๐ฐ๐ทย ๊ถ์์ Kwon Young Soo
๐ผ The man who guided LG through every crisis
Kwon Young-soo is one of Koreaโs most seasoned corporate leaders. His biggest setback was a game-console project that failed completely. He considered quitting, but stayed, cleaned up the mess and learned from it.
His management style
Attitude over intelligence: Seriousness, urgency and real commitment matter more to him than raw intellect.
Clear division of roles: Owners handle vision, networks and long-term direction. CEOs must decide, take risks and run day-to-day operations.
His view of the world
China as a competitor: For Korean companies China is no longer just a sales market but a serious opponent.
AI allows no delay: Even under time pressure and reporting pressure companies need to invest in AI and train their teams.
The United States as core partner: It is where demand, capital and tech momentum originate.
๐ His advice to the next generation
โPeople need dreams.โ
A team needs a goal that convinces. When people feel a real vision, their behavior changes on its own.
