My definition of success? The more you are actively and practically engaged, the more successful you will feel.

There is so much to be learned from listening to people's hopes, frustrations, and points of view

Play fair, be prepared for others to play dirty, and don't let them drag you into the mud.

Publicity is absolutely critical. A good PR story is infinitely more effective than a front page ad.

My philosophy is that if I have any money I invest it in new ventures and not have it sitting around.

Learning and leadership go together. Too much credit goes to me for what we have achieved at Virgin but the successes happen from working and learning with some of the world's most inspiring and inspired people.

For a successful entrepreneur it can mean extreme wealth. But with extreme wealth comes extreme responsibility. And the responsibility for me is to invest in creating new businesses, create jobs, employ people, and to put money aside to tackle issues where we can make a difference.
