Book Presentation: The Virgin Way by Richard Branson
Summary of The Virgin Way (Richard Branson)
Book Abstract
The Virgin Way
of doing business really isn't all that hard to describe although it can be challenging to implement. It generally comes down to just the one maxim: If you don't enjoy it, don't do it. Life's much too short to spend any of it working on what you don't like.
Specifically, the four keys to doing business and leading the Virgin Way are:
Listen
Learn
Laugh
Lead
Don't spend your life looking in the rear-view mirror or talking aimlessly about how things are going to somehow be magically better in the future. Get busy doing what makes your heart soar. Just get out there and do it.
Having what we like to call ‘serious fun’ is at the core of ‘the Virgin Way’ and that's something for which I will never apologize. Being passionately engaged and enjoying every minute of what you do is an attitudinal thing – a spark – that cannot be mandated, trained, put in a job description or an employee manual. It's something that's either in a person's DNA or not, and as such has to come from within.
- Richard Branson
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
- Mahatma Gandhi
If you live every day like it's your last, someday you'll almost certainly be right.
- Steve Jobs
