In this episode, KT recounts his entrepreneurial journey, from management consultant to CEO of a leading multi-brand Thai company. Faced with challenges from long-established competitors along the way, and his commitments to a three-generation-old family business in Malaysia, KT discusses the importance of a strong, effective search partnership and his strategies for value creation, eventually transforming Khaokho Talaypu into a local champion brand.
Some advice from KT:
"You want something that is interesting, that is rewarding financially and personally, that challenges you, helps you grow, has some impact on the people you work with. You want the flexibility to be with your family when you need to be... We don’t see anything else that would be better."
"We knew that what we were doing was not going to be easy and it would be nicer to go through the difficult times and the challenges with a partner rather than do it by yourself."
