Edited highlights of our full conversation.

Julia Goldin is the Global Chief Product & Marketing Officer at The LEGO Group.

How do you lead a business that depends on play?

How do you deliver results today and build for tomorrow?

How do you find yourself when your whole company is watching?

And how do you build a team that dreams of possibility when the whole world is craving certainty?

Leadership is a lot about pushing the boundaries. And if you're not doing that, you're not actually leading. You're just managing someone else's problems.

But even if you show up every day willing to imagine new possibilities and fueled by a clear vision of a new future, you can only do that by yourself for so long.

Eventually, if you're going to change the world, you're going to need help.

And the more that those people are able to explore and adapt, the more they are willing to see change as an ally not a threat, the greater the success they will help you create.

Encouraging the people around you to think and behave like children requires flexibility. On how you see them. And how you see yourself.

In a world that's suddenly so serious, that seems risky and maybe even absurd.

But the adults haven't done that great recently.

Maybe it's time to let the children inside all of us see what they can do.
