honest business book
Different from the books he has done before Richard Branson gives solid business advice from his own experiences.

Not as exciting as his persona
I enjoyed the read but felt he had some scripted parts (obliged to say for business reasons?). Found it less interesting than his "out there" persona...

An excellent listen
So interesting that I found myself making excuses to find time to hear more and got through it in a couple of days. Interesing insights and so much better that it's read by the man himself, from wherever he preferred.

Excellent listening material. Inspirational.
Inspirational, lots of great advice, namley, distinguishing entrepreneurship vs business management. Could have done without the SJW pandering, however years of carefree partying have probably created the guilt necessary to motivate political correctness on the part of R.B.

Short
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Kinda? ....... Well in an even shorter explanation of this book is basically........ Look for new trends.....Listen to all employees opinions...... Recruit young enthusiastic management, with experts on some occasions..... and take the odd risk! His voice puts you in a trance of "what a nice guy". All put into a Virgin perspective.

An excellent listen
Richard Branson is someone I admire enormously for his ability to achieve multiple successes over a long period of time, and that's something he talks about at some length. Once I started listening I couldn't stop - quite compelling.
I was surprised to find the narration was by Richard himself and I considered it a major bonus. He has a good easy-going style.
If you're in business - listen to this audiobook!

A Must Read
This is a really good listen, not only from the practical `tit bits` and fascinating story of one of our Great business men, but vastly enhanced by the fact that it?s read by the man himself. Unlike his autobiography, Loosing My Virginity, Business Stripped Bare is an excellent listen as the author is able to articulate far more so than any narrator, the feeling and exhilaration behind the stories and history, the amusement and exasperation? A simple must read for all Branson enthusiasts and business managers alike. A definite will listen again too.
