I’m sorry to share that, sadly like a lot of people’s friends and relatives right now in these days of Covid, my mum Eve has also passed away. But rather than mourn her loss, I wanted to celebrate her wonderful life, her tremendous spirit, the joy she brought to so many, and the love she gave us https://virg.in/rrW …see more

Simon SinekA team is not a group of people who work together. A team is a group of people who trust each other.

Richard BransonHappy 96th birthday to my biggest inspiration, my mum. She is always looking ahead, and always trying to make change for good. My family has always shown each other a lot of love, which is far more important than anything else.

Simon SinekA mentor is not someone who walks ahead of us to show us how they did it. A mentor walks alongside us to show us what we can do.

Richard BransonWhen Holly was born, we were living on a houseboat in London. Virgin Records was expanding and I worked from home with a desk crammed between the bilge pump and stairs. It’s hard to raise a family and build a business, but it’s incredibly rewarding https://virg.in/i22 …see more

Kevin O'LearyI have been married to Linda for 31 years and I'm really proud of that. Who knew the sign in this pic taken on our honeymoon would end up in the dictionary as the definition of marriage!

Richard BransonThank you all for the kind birthday wishes, it is so heartwarming to see your messages from all over the world. It’s been a difficult year for everyone, but no matter what the challenge, we always try and face it with optimism and togetherness. I want to say a big thank you to the #VirginFamily from the bottom of my heart. Your unwavering support, even when really hard decisions have had to be made, has been so humbling through the last few months. I’m fortunate to be spending time to be with family and friends today (though a big party has been replaced with lots of video calls, which is rather strange!) It still surprises me when someone wishes me a happy 70th birthday. I can’t help but think, 70 - really?! …see more

Kevin O'LearyI LOVE love. Even more than I love money! A life partner if the biggest, most beautiful, & most LIFE changing investment you'll ever make. Choose wrong, game over. Choose right, & you get a life of fulfillment that even the most stacked savings account can't offer - and if you're really smart, you'll have both! . I watched my mother's marriage to my father collapse when I was young, so I learned the risks of love and romance at an early age. But I watched her forge a successful partnership with my stepdad George, which gave me hope... Still, I had no idea that in my late 20s I would meet the woman who would become my wife. Linda and I have been married almost 30 years now, and I still marvel that she possesses all the skills and traits I lack. She's kind & patient where I can be a jerk, serious when I'm a joker, firm when I was a pushover with the kids. Without her, I'd never have achieved the things I have. Throughout my climb in business, she kept the home fires burning while I dug the coal to keep them lit. Linda & I dated for six years before we got married. By the time we finally tied the knot, we weren't starry-eyed kids rushing down the aisle...but we knew we wanted a future together. Happy Valentine's Day, kiddies! …see more

Simon SinekThe responsibility of a company is to serve the customer. The responsibility of leadership is to serve their people so that their people may better serve the customer. If leaders fail to serve their people first, both customer and company will suffer.

Simon SinekWhen we feel stress our bodies release cortisol. Cortisol impairs rational thinking & decision making. In a toxic culture we are biologically more likely to make a bad decision or do something that is ethically questionable. Healthy corporate cultures matter.

Simon SinekA true leader can say “I don’t know” or “I don’t understand” or “I need help.” When I sat down with Inc.

Simon SinekI have learned more about what it means to be human from those who volunteer to wear a uniform than from anyone else I’ve ever met. I’ve hugged more people in uniform than I’ve ever hugged in suits. I’ve cried with more people in uniform than anyone in business. To those who spend every single day thinking about and serving others, on this day, we think about you. I offer you deep love and gratitude for your service to each other and to us. …see more
