You cannot delegate entrepreneurship - if you are going to make mistakes make them yourself. – Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou

Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou is definitely a successful entrepreneur.
His statement (once you’ve proven the business model leave it alone and get a manager in, and hire a proven manger) is somehow in contradiction with what was published by Forbes.com on 06 April 2009 under (EasyJet Shakes Up Boardroom). http://tinyurl.com/cyqnbx

The article is talking about the pressure of Sir Haji-Ioannou to change the board of directors. So, either he did NOT hire proven managers or he did NOT leave it alone.

That situation drove me, (Airlinologist), to tweet the following on 08 April: How can I find Stelios Haji-loannou to tell him about the best one to run EasyJet?

My comment does not change the fact that the article is a source of motivation for many people.
