Richard Branson
Just thought I'd get that part out of the way for anybody who was expecting something else from this entry.
I'm in the middle of a book entitled "business stripped bare", and I have to say that it's enough to make you cry...
It'll bring tears to your eyes if, like me, you think that the traditional, top-down (almost totalitarian really) style of business is completely archaic and belongs in a history book, not in current day-to-day business life.
How to boost innovation, improve service, motivate employees, tripple-bottom-line... the whole lot.
And the worst part of all is that the kind of stuff he says isn't rocket science, only (un)common sense.
I know where I'll be applying for my next job.
A really good read for anybody who's interested...
