Richard Branson is the most surprising new addition to the top 20. A deserving one at that. It is interesting the new balance of power between Academia, Business Consultants, Business leaders and now journalists. Erin White in an insightful commentary for The Wall Street Journal touts a new breed of Guru.
We of course, are delighted to see Dr. Covey still in the top ten after all these years. Dr. C is “still crazy after all these years” as Paul Simon would say. One of the most memorable insights he taught me years ago is that “each great class teeters on the edge of chaos”. Well said. His 7 Habits of Highly Effective People still dances on and off the bestseller lists this year nearly 20 years after its publication.
We would all do well to be life long learners at the feet of these remarkable mentors and hundreds of others like them. Re-read their books and articles.
