"This is the book that made an interesting reader.Really a magnetic one. THe book shows how Mr BRanson become a sucessful Businessman. The best part is that he is so open and did not mind to reveal the weird things he had to do in Business."
"Great book!! Must read for entrepreneurs! Take lessons for the BEST in business and break the molds. So easy to say yet hard to do, if you make it so!"
"Very interesing book for me mainly for two reasons: 1. His keen insight followed by hardwork style is refreshingly different from the super strategy and analysis focus from the MBA courses. A happy medium is my preference. 2. His story of the battle with British Airways resonated with me as being very similar as the one my own family firm is engaged in. Better and cheaper product stymied by the system. Ditto for the experience with Bankers - when you need them they hang you out to dry, when you don't need them they call all the time to help you invest.
I must confess going into the book and expecting a bunch of fluff, since his image is very much as just a do crazy stunts to get attention type of thing. Was very impressed by his work ethic and discipline to make all the calls and put in any effort required. Not a deep strategic thinker but he is humble enough to realize he needs good partners and gives them the space to do their thing."
