Ray Kroc is one of my favorite entrepreneurs. First, he maintained his hunger through many tough years of conventional business so when he discovered the McDonald’s brothers, at 52 years old, he was still motivated to do something about it. Second, his zeal to create a system that works for any hungry entrepreneur willing to do the work helped many people become successful in business. And third, his leadership melded a diverse team from corporate, the field, and suppliers to create a restaurant dynasty. Here is a video from a recent talk where I go into further detail. In my book RESOLVED: 13 Resolutions for LIFE, I share Kroc’s entrepreneurial journey.
Sincerely,
Orrin Woodward
