review 1: His theories showed good points enhanced by examples from his entrepreneurial journey and other companies (ex. Google, Apple, Spanx, Kodak, Netflix, Southwest Airlines). Key Learnings:i) Importance of taking notes of almost everything.ii) the power of having a mentor and be open to accept feedback(used even by business wizards such as Larry Page and Sergei Brin or even Jobs).iii) Plan B (People + Enviroment + Profits) as a realistic path of growth for companies nowadays (showed by cases with GE or Walmart).iv) Innovation + Execution

Content marketing at its best. I enjoyed it and maybe learned something useful along the way.

Nice to hear Branson's perspective but struggles to get to the point at times

It's self indulgent content marketing - but useful and fun.
