Nike’s CFO on Developing Necessary Leadership Skills

Nike CFO and UCLA Anderson alumnus Andy Campion (B.A. ’93, ’03) returned to campus for a frank discussion on developing the most effective corporate leadership skills. A visionary optimist who has grown comfortable leveraging his intuition, Campion doesn’t subscribe to a philosophy that suggests people are born leaders. Leadership is a skill developed over time, he told MBA students, and the best ideas don’t always go through but the best plans will.

I should be fair about the quality of business education taught at American universities. They are unparalleled at teaching investment strategies to wealthy foreign students who now apply them to investing in America -- like using corporate strategies to buy apartment complexes and pricing rents beyond what American salaries pay. I suppose back in the eighties it was the business schools that were plugging for manufacturing Jobs to leave America in the first place. Not only did America loose jobs, now it is getting bought by foreign wealth and middle class Americans are getting blamed.

That beautiful Anderson school and UCLA is all marketing. You don't need such to teach brilliance, but you do need it to attract students into taking cookie-cutter business classes. And much of it was paid for by tuitions from foreign students.

In house training, personality and other factors are, to my dismay, more relevant than analytics for analysts and finance managers. Analysts in our 3 state area offices and the hundreds of outposts around the country are so analytically inept they don't seem able to identify even a bell shaped curve. They hold to the old adage, "you'll never use that on a job". But maybe I need to check ✅️ how university departments use statistical research methods in case that's where the root problem is? From what I've seen, many university researchers -- of which biologists are classic -- apply analytical tools as bad as not knowing anything about them to start. You would think if leadership skills are teachable that inductive mathematical reasoning would be also by university staffs. But I'm thinking university staffs are the ones who don't have the application skills to begin with (aside from Tukey, Hoaglim, Mosteller, Rousseeau and the liked). It takes a different mindset to put problems and events into math, statistical and simulation models than to punch buttons, know formulas or even work proofs. Most US managers don't even know how to utilize people with mathematical intuition because they don't recognize what such intuition is. Finance managers (outside of maybe those with actuarial backgrounds) are not much different. Skilled individuals from Eastern and Middleastern countries do seem to fair better getting hired as analysts and often bring alot to the table. And the internet giants do utilize people with advanced analytical skills on a scale so grand its scarry. Foreign high tech companies are also using people with industrial engineering skills that often use analytics. But even production analysts in America are still behind in skill sets the Japanese were showing off in the 70's. The junk coming out of China prior to smart phones was no doubt the fault of American trained production analysts, planned obsolescence and purposed manufacturing quality cuts. But look at China and the near East how they are about to clobber the west, and mostly because of acceptance and utilization of people with a wide range of analytical skills.
