Entrepreneursh ip is a great leveller, since having the benefit of a wealthy background or a generous investor isn't always an advantage.

If you want milk, don't sit on a stool in the middle of a field in the hope that a cow will back up to you.
Richard Branson
It isn't effective or productive to force your employees to do anything. Choice empowers people and makes for a more content workforce.
Richard Branson
Leading by fear is a lot of companies' approach, and a horrible way for people to exist in their lives, when most of your life is spent at work.
Richard Branson
I think I've learned that if you have a house, you end up living in the kitchen, so if you have one big kitchen and then enough bedrooms for your family, that's about all you need for a home.
Richard Branson
A generation ago, the image was that you had to trample everyone else down to succeed but I don't believe that makes good business sense.
Richard Branson
A business can be started with very little money.
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?
Richard Branson
Realize that the people who are working with you, this is their life. You know, 80% of their time is spent at work. Make sure that they're proud of what they're doing, that they're enjoying what they're doing.
