March Book Review – Losing My Virginity by Richard Branson.

For the month of March, our team decided to choose a book that was a little different from the ones chosen previously. We chose to read Losing My Virginity by Richard Branson.

This book is an autobiography that goes into great detail of all aspects of Richard Branson’s life, showcasing his tremendous struggles in childhood and captivating us with his marvelous adventures.

Overall we really enjoyed this read. It was amazing to see how far someone can come from early childhood being at the bottom of the class in a boarding school, to building a globally recognized foundation. His ability to deal with people and his never ending push to achieve his goals is impressive. We found it noble that he never started a business to make money, he always had a greater goal for helping others achieve something.

We also found that throughout Richard Branson’s life, his actions echoed our 6 core company values. His book inspired us to continuously nurture all relationships, create success, and make it fun!

On a scale of 1-10 where 1 equals a book with little value one would not wish to read again, and 10 equals a fantastic book with the ability to grow an individual personally, professionally or both, we rated this book a 9.1.

Have you read it? Let us know what you thought.
