It's all about finding and hiring people smarter than you. Getting them to join your business. And giving them good work. Then getting out of their way. And trusting them. You have to get out of the way so YOU can focus on the bigger vision. That's important. And here's the main thing....you must make them see their work as a MISSION.

Richard BransonWe have the enormous opportunity in our hands to make a positive difference for business, people, and the planet.
Richard BransonNever go into business purely to make money. If that's the motive you're better off doing nothing.
Richard BransonWhen employees tell you about their good ideas for the business, don't limit your response to asking questions, taking notes and following up. If you can, ask those people to lead their projects and take responsibility for them. From those experiences, they will then have built the confidence to take on more and you can take a further step back.
