Quote from Richard Branson's latest book, "Business Stripped Bare"

"For me , my work begins at home, it is my home, and my partners in business are my friends in life. Time at home isn't idle: it's time for reaffirming those very values - creativity and care, trust and teamwork - that keep great businesses alive.

If we're looking for business inspiration, and all the old certainties have fallen away, then let's start today, at the kitchen table, surrounded by the people who made us and love us; here, among the children we have made, and in whom we take such pride. Now that's a model for business."

The conclusion of the introduction to the paperback edition.
