Dyson$$s Leadership Spurs Global Success

The goal of this activity is to describe how successful leadership development can help organizations thrive in a competitive world.

The Dyson Company was founded more than $25$ years ago by James Dyson. Motivated by irritation with the design and operation of household products and finding inspiration at his local lumberyard, Dyson designed a vacuum cleaner that doesn$$t use a filter bag, picks up dirt and debris efficiently, never loses suction, and makes vacuuming a simple yet deliberate household activity. Dyson leads his company and employees to come up with innovatively engineered products that keep customer frustration to a minimum, while pushing the envelope when it comes to design and other forms of innovation.
