How to be a successful entrepreneur?

A quote from Jack Stack, “It’s an entrepreneurial trait

to be quite naïve. Naïveté is really, really good

because it’s the point by which you start. You have

the confidence. “

Jack StackFounder and CEO of

SRC Holdings Corporation

Springfield, MO

From a KY 3 TV interview, Jack said “I failed

everything up until 19. I was thrown out of the

seminary, college, and flunked the Army

physical…What do you do when God doesn’t

want you? The military doesn’t want you? So I

entered the workplace at 19.”

Stack stated in the KY3 interview, "I just wanted

people to have a piece of the pie.  I wasn't

concerned about what big piece of the pie we had

as leaders.  I was concerned with just make a big

pie. For Stack that means distributing the wealth. 

He said line workers for SRC retire very well.”
