Greatness?

How To Be Great: Research has shown that the lack of talent is irrelevant to great success. The secret lies in hard work, focus and extreme dedication. I have a feature article in the April edition of Entrepreneur Magazine (SA Edition) in which I define greatness, propose greatness criteria and unpack how you can take yourself and your company to greatness.

I followed this article up with some profiles of a number of local and international business icons who have gone beyond good to great. They personify the greatness criteria and we can learn a great deal from them.

Greatness profiles include:
Howard Schultz (Starbucks)
Warren Buffet (Berkshire Hathaway)
Mark Lamberti (Massmart)
Adrian Gore (Discovery)
Anita Roddick (Body Shop)
Herman Mashaba (Black Like Me)
Richard Branson (Virgin)
