While building the Virgin Group over forty years, Richard Branson has never shied away from seemingly outlandish challenges that others (including his own colleagues on several occasions) considered sheer lunacy. He has taken on giants like British Airways and won, and monsters like Coca-Cola and lost.Now Branson gives an inside look at his strikingly different swashbuckling style of leadership. Learn how fun, family, passion, and the dying art of listening are key components to what his extended family of employees around the world have always dubbed (with a wink) the “Virgin Way.”This unique perspective comes from a man who dropped out of school at sixteen, suffers from dyslexia, and has never worked for anyone but himself. He may be famous for thinking outside the box—an expression he despises—but Branson asserts that “you’ll never have to think outside the box if you refuse to let anyone build one around you.”This is a unique book on leadership from someone who readily admits he has never read a book on leadership in his life. So expect the unexpected.

Ben hayata atilirken, her sey daha belirliydi. onunuzde bir kariyer yolculugu vardi ve cogu zaman babanizinkinin aynisiydi. Cogu anne ise tabii ki evdeydi. Bugun hicbir sey kesin degil; hayat cok uzun bir mucadele olabilir. Eger bir yere varmak istiyorsaniz, onceliklerinizi belirlemeniz gerekiyor. Benim aldigim en iyi ders, sadece yapmak oldu. Ne olursa olsun, ne kadar zor ve urkutucu gorunurse gorunsun, antik Yunan filozofu Platon'un dedigi gibi, "Her isin en onemli kismi baslangictir." Cinliler de, "Binlerce kilometrelik bir yolculuk, tek bir adimla baslar," der. Eger ileriye bakarak sonunu dusunurseniz ve aradaki potansiyel tehlikelerle dolu onca kilometreye bakarsaniz, o ilk adimi asla atamayabilirsiniz. Hayatta elde etmek istediginiz her neyse, eger caba gostermezseniz hedefinize ulasamazsiniz. O ilk adimi atin. Karsiniza pek cok zorluk cikacaktir. Pek cok engelle karsilasabilirsiniz; ama sonunda basaracaksiniz. Bol sans! -Richard Branson-(Tanitim Bulteninden)Sayfa 228Baski 2016 Humanist Kitap Yayincilik
