I have always heard of leadership and know that it is something special, however, I never thought of leading from the second chair. This phrase means being a leader but not the person in charge.

Entrepreneurship is not only about creating new business models but also about being innovative and improving on already established structures. Entrepreneur Gary Salomon, co-founder of FASTSIGNS International, demonstrates how essential improvements can make a difference. I decided to interview Mr. Salomon because of the success he was able to establish by being innovative. As a future entrepreneur I want to be able to identify future business ventures that have already been established.

These were as follows: greatness is possible, everyone wants to be part of something bigger than themselves, and that the idea that “Everything is special” is untrue. As he began his story starting I honestly could not begin to make a connection with food. He started
