Mark Schiller, CEO, Hain Celestial Group
Description
Mark Schiller, CEO of Hain Celestial Group, a leading organic and natural products company, talks about the strategy of transforming a holding company into an operating company, selling 23 brands along the way and then relying on top brands like Celestial Seasonings teas, Terra Chips and Linda McCartney’s line with a focus on health and wellness, under a simple 4-part strategy to become a high-growth company. Mark then shares his leadership and management philosophies on culture, hiring senior leaders under the “best athlete” theory, product innovation, leading in ESG, and his “central park” theory. Finally, lessons learned from his Dad and FedEx’s business plan (the ‘hub and spoke’ model), and deep and personal leadership insights gained from raising a child born with special needs.
