The biggest business publication of 2009 — Branson's business secrets now in paperback.

In Business Stripped Bare, Sir Richard Branson shares the inside track on his life in business and reveals the incredible truth about his most risky, brilliant and audacious deals. Discover why Virgin tried to take on one of the world's biggest superbrands, how Virgin Mobile USA holds the record as the fastest company in history to generate revenues of over one billion dollars (faster than Microsoft, Google and Amazon) and how Richard is the only person in the world to have built eight billion-dollar companies from scratch in eight different sectors.

Combining invaluable advice with the remarkable and candid inside stories of Virgin's greatest achievements, as well as some of its setbacks, Business Stripped Bare is a dynamic, inspirational and truly original guide to success in business and in life. Whether you are an executive, an entrepreneur or are just starting out, Richard strips business down to show how you can succeed and make a difference.

From AudioFile:
As a global entrepreneur and a frank and insightful mentor, Richard Branson has an unwavering belief in his instincts-which are practical, gutsy, and good intentioned. With an eye for the smallest detail, Branson transformed his early bohemian and humanitarian ideals into guidelines for his mega-successful Virgin brand, which includes Virgin Airlines and Virgin Records. Adrian Mulraney's delivery suits Branson's charismatic and maverick approach to business and his candid insights into his 40 years of successes and failures. Open and honest, Branson isn't hesitant to reveal all, and Mulraney recounts anecdotes about such topics as life on a private island; renovations of an island just for employee R&R; and collaborations with powerful leaders, rock stars, and the most humble of entrepreneurs. This is a fascinating listen. B.J.P. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
