A proposito di questo titolo

Some extraordinary and unexpected factors are revealed in Taylor's fascinating new book that explains why some people become billionaires. Despite the fact that the sample of 17 self-made billionaires come from disparate backgrounds, work in different industries, have very different personalities, and superficially appear to have different upbringings, they have one important thing in common: they are all outsiders. Their edge comes from being different and that difference is the well-spring of their creativity and wealth. This combined with direction, drive and trading intelligence has powered them to extreme wealth.

Recensioni editoriali

If you’ve listened to The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, How to Win Friends and Influence People, and the hundreds of other guides to wealth creation and you still aren’t rich, maybe this audiobook is for you. Performed by Adrian Mulraney in a voice that sounds more professorial than entrepreneurial, Brent D. Taylor’s The Outsider’s Edge focuses on 17 well-known billionaires and identifies their "outsider" statuses as a major factor in their successes. Biographies of Taylor’s examples - from Bill Gates to Oprah Winfrey - are rehashed and anecdotes meant to inspire are deployed. For those seeking to bolster creativity, see Taylor’s The Creative Edge. For military personnel looking to achieve greatness, Taylor is now at work on a similar tome for you.

Recensioni della critica

"Taylor studied the Forbes list of the world's wealthiest people to compile his own list of 'outsiders' who have made it big-each for his or her own unique qualities. Using the lives and careers of such billionaires as Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Ralph Lauren, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Oprah Winfrey, Taylor presents his own ideas as to how they achieved extraordinary financial success by breaking from the pack and going against the norms of their cultures. Australian narrator Adrian Mulraney brings the material to life without lecturing or editorializing. Expressing Taylor's ideas in an earnest voice, Mulraney succeeds at making the material interesting to the average listener and especially appealing to entrepreneurs." (AudioFile Magazine)
