Truer words have never been said before. I've done research on entrepreneurs like Branson and Stelios, and my findings were that, while these guys are great for starting a business up and turning innovative ideas into profitable reality, they are often horrible when it comes to actually running the business. For this reason, for instance, Stelios does the right thing by setting a new venture up, making sure that it's running smoothly and then moving on to the next big thing, leaving the day-to-day operating of, say, EasyJet, in the hands of competent managers rather than visionary leaders. In fact, in my opinion, Branson and Stelios perfectly illustrate the importance of carefully distinguishing between managers and leaders, and of the knowledge of when to employ which. “Part of being a good leader, according to Branson, is also the ability to know when to back away from a task.”
