People who work for me are working for what I believe in. The leaders who run our companies do so on the basis of those who came first and who said, "A company is its people." I hope my companies are run on the basis of praising their workers and looking for the best in them, not criticizing them. In the same way that you water a plant and it sprouts leaves, people flourish when you praise them.

Richard BransonMy philosophy is that if I have any money I invest it in new ventures and not have it sitting around.
Richard BransonI am convinced that companies should put staff first, customers second and shareholders third - ultimately that's in the best interest of customers and shareholders.
