Otherwise, I don’t need you in the future for running the company.’” Even knowing his family’s desire to have him join the business, Bernard first worked at a consulting firm after graduating. After his 2 years at the firm, his father told him he was needed at Krone to help with quality control at the factories.
“He said, ‘It’s a good time for you to step into the company. You will run a small factory, and you can make your own mistakes,’” Bernard says. “I told my dad I wasn’t sure he could afford my daily wages as a consultant. He wasn’t smiling.” See more of the Krone story and the product innovations that helped propel to the company they are today in the next episode of "How We Did It: Stories from Independent Farm Equipment Innovators." | | | Click on the image below to watch the episode: Krone — Part 3 | | | Farm Innovations • 16655 W.
