Run lean; avoid unnecessary expenses.

We have the enormous opportunity in our hands to make a positive difference for business, people, and the planet.

I think great businessmen are more likely made than born. I don't know if it's from your upbringing, your parental background, the struggles you go through. In my own particular situation, I left school at 15 and I was struggling to survive in the jungle and that was a great education. So I think just getting out there, hands on, learning to survive teaches you a lot.

If you look for the best in your employees, they'll flourish. If you criticize or look for the worst, they'll shrivel up. We all need lots of watering.

I've taken many knocks over the years but it has only made me stronger and more determined to succeed.

It isn't effective or productive to force your employees to do anything. Choice empowers people and makes for a more content workforce.

Once a changemaker, always a changemaker but only a few swim against the tide.
