Leonardo Del Vecchio
Tommaso Ebhardt · 4 highlights
“It's always the same motivation, the survival instinct, moving before the others to anticipate the risk of being overwhelmed. Relaxation is not possible, you have to fight every single day, he learned that in the barracks of the boarding school, on the white roads of the outskirts of Milan. Of course, the move is risky. Leonardo is not afraid, even though for many the step seems bigger than the leg.”
“It is the fear of losing what he had managed to build with difficulty that leads him to a new step towards the unknown, a constant evolutionary tension for disruptors like him: they are never satisfied, they cannot stop growing. They do not do it, most of the time, for a thirst for money or power, but for the fear that their empire could collapse at any moment, perhaps due to someone else's choices.”
