#19. Evolving through the corporate world with Andy Chiu. lg.

Many of us grew up and built our careers in the corporate world
with countless ups and downs on our way.


My guest today from Hong Kong is definitely one of us - Andy
Chiu. 


Andy experienced the culture of L'Oréal and Mercedes Benz before
he learned that wearing a suit is not the definition of being
successful. He followed his true passion and landed in the sports
and lifestyle industry, worked at Adidas and Puma and Adidas
again leading Originals in Japan. Andy is a true expert in
building cultural relevance for brands, became an 
entrepreneur, started a business and is today consulting brands
and corporations. I consider myself lucky to know him and to have
the chance to chat in my podcast. ️



Some things I have learned in our session:


️ Wearing a suit is not equal being successful. 


️ Find and follow your passion as this is the base for success in
your profession.


️ Sometimes all the answers to challenges in a corporation are
already there, but it needs an external person to come and speak
them out loud. 


️ Substance in product and communication will always win on a
long term.
