和F),为每位采访者选定最佳采访对象.选项中有一项是多余选项.
A. Sheri Poe  Ryka Inc.
Since I started this company in my kitchen seven years ago,I always dreamt of what it would be
some day. Focusing on that goal helps me get through tough times. To get the kind of success that you
want, you need to dream big. That's the starting point. Every success story begins with big dreams. You
need to have big dreams  for yourself , like  being  somebody  rich , famous or fulfilled.You need to have
a clear goal of what you want to achieve.
Also,l think it's really important that the people you'reworking with are as committed to the same
goal as you are , so you can support each other and keep each other energetic.
B. Anita Roddick  The Body Shop Inc.
In America , we have a shop in Harlem where 50 percent of the profits go into the community
development, and the other 50 percent go toward the funding of a similar shop elsewhere in the United
States. The pride that shop brings to the staff and local people inspired me.
What The Body Shop does successfully is use our facilities in the street and shopping centers to talk
about real human issues like AIDS, recycling, human rights, and community service or to encourage
people to speak out against anything they consider to be unjust. Knowing our products are symbols of
social change is really encouraging.
C. Ben Cohen  Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc.
I'm energized by The people I work with. I'm very relationship-driven, which I think is different
from most entrepreneurs. I'm inspired by doing things that are not normal and that most people think
don't fit into the business world or don't make any sense.
In business, you are judged by the company you keep-from your management team , board of
directors , and strategic partners.Maybe the lady you met in a trade association meeting can help you
secure funding , or the gentleman at a conference can provide you with management advice.
D. Richard Melman  Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises
A number of years ago,l was interviewed by someone who was writing a book on entrepreneurs.
He asked me. " What's the opposite of work?" I answered. " Lazy. " He started laughing and said,
"Believe it or not, a lot of entrepreneurs say the same thing. "
The average person thinks the opposite of work is play, but to an entrepreneur,work is play. I think it
all adds up to having fun. It's  fun  to create ; it's fun to  entertain, and  it's fun to make people happy with
our service. When it stops being fun,l'll stop doing it.
E. Frank Toskan  Make-Up Art Cosmetics( M. A. C. )
One of the nicest things anyone ever said to me was, "I hate makeup,but I love M.  A.  C. " That' s
what moves me on. Even  people who don ' t wear makeup can appreciate our company , what it stands
for,its values, and the way we do business.
We work from an inverted pyramid , where the customers are always at the top. Our customers
inspire me and keep me going. They and our staff, not money, make me enthusiastic. If I had stayed in
this business just for the money,l would have closed down years ago.
F. Kenneth Cole   Kenneth Cole Productions Inc.
You can' t be everything to everybody. Fach of us has our own strengths and weaknesses. To be
effective, you need to identify your strengths and concentrate on them. You'll become more successful if
you are able to channel your efforts to areas that you do best. In business, for example, if you know you
are good at marketing, then give it full play. Seek help or assistance in areas that you may be poor at,
such as accounting or bookkeeping. To turn your weakness into strength , consider taking hands-on
learning or training.
