Richard Branson "Sir Richard Branson. The Autobiography"
Â
Richard Branson
Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Music, Virgin Radio, Virgin Cola ... From records to soft drinks, flights to financial services, the Virgin name has dominated since the 1980s.
When Richard Branson was still at school, he began to use the skills that have made him one of the world’s leading businessmen. His search for success, and love of challenge, have brought him wealth and fame. They have also led him into battle with major organizations like British Airways, and driven him to risk his life in hot-air balloons.
In this book, Branson tells his own story and examines the motives for his actions in both his business and personal lives. With great honesty he describes his battle to create Virgin, the excitement of building new businesses, and his grief when his plans went wrong. His belief that business can and should be fun is illustrated on every page.
