The Ikea Effect is a bias. It makes us overvalue things *we* have built. The name comes from the Swedish company Ikea that sells furniture customers have to assemble themselves. I used to think that the Ikea Effect was just for customers, but having seen the power of autonomy at various levels, I believe that the Ikea Effect works just as well for employees. Only it is not harnessed nearly as much in firms. Here’s what tends to happen: You give your salesperson the best script to match note for note in their spiel to customers and they’ll do it unthinkingly, spiritlessly. Here’s what could happen: You acknowledge an idea they have deeply thought about, show them how to make it fit the overall strategy, help them polish it, but don’t try to own any of it, and you’ll have unleashed the highest level of ownership in them. Now they’ll make it their life’s mission to win over customers. And they’ll continue to think deeply about what will add value to customers’ lives because of a very selfish reason: they just love the high of building solutions and seeing them work. #ikeaeffect #ownership #curiosityovercertainty

Communication is all about creating a positive feeling for the brand and to reflect the purpose. Brilliant example in my book👌👌

When IKEA comes to town. THERE IS SO MUCH TO #LEARN...big statements #curiosity #excitement Are you curious? I get excited when there is some mystery. Take this bag, almost everyone will recognise this particular bag right? It is not any old bag and as you may have guessed, it creates a #memorable and #remarkable statement... Along Europe's busiest shopping street, something exciting is happening inside... In putting on a "store in the making" coat (or skin) in one of the brand’s famous giant blue bags, IKEA is both offering a playful hint at what’s to come and handily the suspense. My TAKEAWAY: (1) Make a statement. (2) Symbols (like pictures) speak to everyone. (3) If your making something, create an element of curiosity.

People often ask me why I work at IKEA. The main reason is that IKEA's values resonate with my own. In this post, I'll explain more about the IKEA key values (the 8 bold words in this post). They are the essential building blocks of IKEA's success. Here we go: 𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 is the cornerstone of IKEA’s culture.

What is the “IKEA effect” ? it’s not an easy process to assemble the IKEA pieces together yet people keep buying them. It’s the Ownership, Pride, sense of building things, and the reward at the end that makes the effort worthwhile. Key takeaways: When we find meaning in the work we do, it gives a sense of ownership, pride, motivation, and fulfillment. Enjoy the rest of the week and it’s always day 1. #HappyLaborDay #ItsAlwaysDay1

At IKEA we want to be as affordable as possible and to reach as many people as we can. 🙂 That is why we always build on long-term priorities, build a base for the future, think of the customer every step of the way. We ask ourselves - what will the customer do, feel, like or need in the upcoming years?  Affordable solutions is definitely one big answer. By investing in low prices, we are also investing in a better future. That is why we are making price reductions across the world and SEE - new lower prices for over 600 products. And this is not a short-term discount, promotion or campaign - these are the actual new prices.  https://lnkd.in/dFArq4nN
