In the beginning it was just about the business - now it's about the brand.
Richard Branson

I learnt from an early age this need to delegate responsibility out to other team members as there is just too much for one person to do themselves. What is the point of hiring talented team members if you don't give them the freedom to make the most of the chance you have given them?

I never learned the rules in the first place. To change the game is at the heart of what Virgin stands for, so the company culture has always been: Don't sweat it: rules were meant to be broken.
