Business Hero
It seems whenever someone starts a business they want to be Donald Trump. As a woman, I could never really relate to him. He just seemed rude with a trophy wife & really bad hair. I mean with all that money, why can’t he buy some style?? So I had to look elsewhere for my business hero.
I finally decided on Lorelai Gilmore. Yes, I know that she is fictional. I wish that she wasn’t, but she is. I’ve come to accept that. However, I think that she has the perfect balance of business sense & feminist, which is hard to find in the business world. She’s basically everything I want to be when my business grows up. Who is your business hero?

Great post I like the bit about Donald trump, I don’t really have a business hero.
Because I don’t think its really rocket science to be successful you just need to work hard, learn fast and be a bit lucky

While you didn’t specify which gender for a business hero, I’ll go ahead and split it:
For men, I’d have to say Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Records and 35662236 other business ventures. He’s an educated risk taker and willing to put it on the line if he believes in it.
For women, I’d say Charlene Begley, CEO and President of GE plastics. She’s only 39! And has proven that women can compete on a level playing field with men.
