If You Could Meet One Famous Entrepreneur… – Entrepreneur Poll Update #2

silhouette-manIt’s time for another poll update! A couple of weeks ago we asked, “If you could meet one famous entrepreneur, dead or alive, who would it be and why?”

Steve jobs , co-founder of Apple was leading in last weeks update, a clear winner, and still has the most votes, but who do we have this week? Here are some of your comments – it will also afford the opportunity to give you a quick refresher on these great entrepreneurs from our previous posts!

Warren Buffet

Warren Buffet. He is amazing. His business style is simple as much as he lives his life.And I think his strength is common sense.

Donald Trump

Walt Disney

Al Capone

Al Capone ? or one of the early explorers? Just another angle

I never thought I would see Walt Disney and Al Capone in the same post!

All very admirable entrepreneurs – I am looking forward to seeing what we get next week in our 3rd and final update before the grand finale and a new poll. I would also like to mention Sir Alan Sugar and Anita Roddick – another 2 entrepreneurs who I would like to meet.

    Great post.

    I would love to have a one-to-one with Rich Schefren and Stephen Pierce. I think I would certainly learn a lot.

    Regards,

    Sir Richard Branson..

    Any chance you could run a University post on “Prelaunch marketing”?

    Thank you

  3. It’s gotta be Buffett for me. Everytime he speaks I think everyone should stop what they are doing and listen. So much wisdom, and a way about him that is able to explain what is going on to the lay person so they understand it.
