Disciplined Anarchy – The Story of Mikael Rautanen and Inderes
A disruptor in the financial sector challenges conventional thinking
On a Monday in October 2021, a slender young man buys a lot of beer from S-market. The salesperson asking for ID doesn’t know that the person making the purchase is the CEO of a newly listed company, 36-year-old Mikael Rautanen, who is on his way to celebrate his company’s listing.
About 13 years earlier, during the financial crisis, Rautanen was a quiet finance student who was bothered by investor insider dealings and bursting economic bubbles. As a stock market ‘nerd’, he started writing analyses of listed companies. His predictions about Nokia’s development were so accurate that high-profile investor publications began to follow what he had to say.
Based on the hobby of Rautanen and his friends, the analysis service Inderes was born, which in a few years grew into a trusted stock market hawk for the general public. However, Inderes is not an ordinary company: its disciplined anarchy organizational model challenges established notions of working life and management and paints a new picture of the style and methods of success.
In his personal life, Rautanen has experienced heavy losses and health challenges. How have difficult experiences influenced his views on company management? How does one hold onto down-to-earth values when the world around strives for quick enrichment?
