Smart Luck: and the seven other qualities of great entrepreneurs

by Andrew Davidson (Author)

Synopsis

Everybody wants to know why life's winners are so successful: how did they do it?, why they do it?, what makes them different? All of us are fascinated by the lives and backgrounds of the rich (and sometimes famous). Behind every entrepreneur is a story. Andrew Davidson has interviewed dozens of leading entrepreneurs over many years. He has asked the questions we all want to ask. He has probed into their backgrounds, delved into their psyche. Compared, contrasted and considered just what it is about them that makes them different. Here he pulls together all the information, and takes an overall look at the bigger picture and what we can learn from the living giants, who did it their way. Davidson interprets the psychology of success, telling the entrepreneurs' stories in their own words, and the words of the people closest to them. For anybody with a will to succeed or a fascination as to how others do this combination is unputdownable.

Media Reviews
'With his notebooks and tape recorder overflowing, [Andrew Davidson] has parlayed a career's worth of probing into what may be the most entertaining book on business published this year.' 'The prose is breathless, the subjects are opinionated and the colour writing is so good it is difficult to remember that this is meant to be a serious book about entrepreneurs. There isn't a dull chapter to be found.' Sunday Times, Book of the Week
