A man who gives the definition to Entrepreneur sure does it well. Sir Richard Branson, Chairman of Virgin in my opinion is one of the best examples of a truly successful entrepreneur, which all entrepreneurs should aspire to become.
After dropping out of school, and constantly thinking outside the box with a very edgy approach to business Richard is constantly innovating. Most recently Virgin is bringing people into space via Virgin Galactic, and Virgin America’s new fleet of Boeings have became a smash hit for travelers in the US.
He has three books, which I have read and recommend all as great reads:
Business Stripped Bare
Losing My Virginity
Screw it Lets Do It
Living on Necker Island, surely can’t be too stressful and waking up to the crashing waves of the Caribbean is just about everyone’s picture of relaxation. But he doesn’t quit there.
I suggest taking a look at his blog here and learning more about what Mr. Branson is up to for yourself:
