In 1995,

00:07

a graphic design teacher named Lynda Weinman,

00:10

and also an aspiring entrepreneur,

00:13

decided to get the website Lynda.com.

00:16

She did so because she needed a sandbox to play in,

00:19

with the new graphic-design tools,

00:21

the digital tools that were being developed at that time:

00:24

Photoshop, Illustrator and many more.

00:27

And she needed a place to put her students' work

00:30

so all could see it.

00:32

Well, she put that website together,

00:34

and the business began to grow.

00:36

And in 2002, she discovered it could be much, much more,

00:42

so she moved all of her teaching online.

00:45

Later, the business was sold to LinkedIn,

00:48

who renamed it LinkedIn Learning,

00:51

sold for 1.5 billion US dollars.

00:55

Lynda is the poster child

00:58

for what I call the counterconventional mindsets of entrepreneurs.

01:04

So I want to tell you about these mindsets today,

01:07

and here we go.

01:08

So, number one,

01:10

why do I call them counterconventional?

01:13

First, these six mindsets run counter

01:16

to the best practices, as we call them, that are done in big companies today.

01:22

They fly in the face of much of what we teach at London Business School

01:26

and other business schools

01:27

about strategy, about marketing, about risk and about much more.

01:32

Now, you might say,

01:34

“John, what do you mean by ‘mindset?’”

01:37

A mindset, of course, is up here, right?

01:39

It's those things, attitudes, habits, thoughts, mental inclination

01:46

which, when something comes our way,

01:49

predetermines the response we make to that something that comes our way,

01:53

and those somethings, as we entrepreneurs call them,

01:56

are opportunities.

01:57

So I want to tell you about these six mindsets,

02:00

and the first one, I call "Yes, we can."

02:03

Now, B-school strategy 101 says the following:

02:07

what we're supposed to do, in a company, is stick to our knitting.

02:11

We've got to figure out what we're really good at --

02:13

we call them core competencies --

02:15

and we've got to build on them, invest in them, nurture them,

02:18

make them more robust.

02:20

And if somebody comes along and says,

02:22

“Can you do something different, that’s outside of that?”

02:25

what are we supposed to say?

02:27

"No, I'm sorry, we don't do that around here."

02:30

Well ...

02:32

A Brazilian entrepreneur named Arnold Correia

02:34

built a wonderful business that, today, is called Atmo Digital,

02:38

by disregarding those rules.

02:41

He'd already reinvented his business twice,

02:44

to become a major provider

02:47

of event management and production services,

02:50

when one of his customers said to him,

02:53

"You know, I have 260 stores scattered all around Brazil,"

02:56

and Brazil is a big country,

02:58

"and I'd like to be able to broadcast training and motivational events

03:02

to the stores in real time.

03:04

So, Arnold, could we put televisions in the training room of all my stores,

03:09

and could we build a satellite uplink

03:11

so we can send all this wonderful stuff to the stores?"

03:15

So what did he say?

03:16

He said, “Yes, we could do that,”

03:18

even though he knew nothing about satellite technology,

03:21

had never operated outside São Paulo,

03:24

but he got it done.
