The Viking Law – leadership essentials for us all!
January 15, 2010 / Written by Johan Lyreborn
In the mid 90’s the Configura friend and entrepreneur Gunnar Olsson showed me the Viking Law. I was in love immediately. Not many words but a lot of sense and meaning. I value the Viking Law as a must have tool in leading myself and my team. So, here it is, use it with caution, its powerful!
Viking law
Be brave and a driving force
Get straight to the point
Take the chance when it arises
Use many angles of attack
Be versatile and quick footed
Attack one target at a time
Don’t plan everything in detail
Make use of the best weapons available
Be prepared
Keep your weapons in order
Stay in good shape
Be sure to have good friends and allies
Be united on important issues
Choose one chief
Be a good businessman
Find out the needs of the client
Don’t promise more than you can deliver
Don’t overcharge
Work in a way so you can come back
Keep order in the camp
Retain a good overview
Do pleasant things that strengthen the team
Make sure everybody does useful tasks
Take advice from the whole team
