If You Could Meet One Famous Entrepreneur… - Entrepreneur Poll

[Scunizzo]

It’s time for another YoungEntrepreneur.com poll!

Last week I shared with you the results of our most recent poll on Twitter (What is the best way to build your business through Twitter? - Entrepreneur Poll Results). We had a great response and I wanted to thank everyone for participating!

This week our new poll is asking:

“If you could meet one famous entrepreneur, dead or alive, who would it be and why?”

We’ve done a number of famous entrepreneur profiles here on the blog and I’d like to know if you had to just pick one person in history to meet, who would it be?

Is it a modern day entrepreneur like Richard Branson or Bill Gates? Maybe it’s an entrepreneurial legend from the past like Henry Ford or Andrew Carnegie.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and remember to please share why you would like to meet that person. What makes him or her more special than everyone else?

I’m looking forward to some interesting comments! You can have your say by leaving a comment at If You Could Meet One Famous Entrepreneur… - Entrepreneur Poll
