I wanted to be qualified and learn what I needed to do a good job. I suppose it gave me confidence. I had a very bad experience with a Harvard graduate we made chief operating officer. The guy was so patronising, he'd deliberately use words I didn't know. Four weeks into the course I realised he was an idiot, so I fired him and the business improved.
Business is just a game.
When I figured that out and learnt the rules, it became easy. It's given Adkison the confidence to think ambitiously about the future and now he has his eye on running Hasbro at some point. I love working for Hasbro - it's a great company. Ultimately I want to run my own company again.
