Biz Tip of The Day: Travel is a Great Educator


Biz tip of the day: Travel is a great educator. It is amazing how often you will be able to draw from your travel experiences, the people you met, the places you visited and from seeing things out of the ordinary in your own world. Travel as much as you can to add to your knowledge base:

I’ve always said that travel is the best university; getting from one place to another means more than physical movement. It also entails change, challenge, new ideas and inspirations….I had this idea of making little products like shampoo and so forth using ingredients I had found when I traveled.
Anita Roddick
She also said:

Successful entrepreneurs may hate hierarchies and structures and try to destroy them. They may garner the disapproval of MBAs for their creativity and wildness. But they have antennae in their heads. When they walk down the street anywhere in the world, they have their antennae out, evaluating how what they see can relate back to what they are doing. It might be packaging, a word, a poem, or even something in a completely different business.
