Mark Zuckerberg And Facebook 3. The Impact Of Leadership

Zuckerberg even came up with the idea on his own. Zuckerberg was believed by some to have

Mark Zuckerberg and Patrick Soon-Shiong came from different backgrounds, and although now they have earned a spot in the Forbes Top 400 Most Successful Entrepreneurs, it seems that Mark had more than advantage that led to his success. Mark Zuckerberg is the son of dentist Edward Zuckerberg and psychiatrist Karen Kempner. Zuckerberg attended private school after demonstrating great proficiency in his classes at public school, and he received numerous accomplishments in science, math, astronomy, physics, and classical studies. Mark Zuckerberg lived the life of a middle class individual, where he had access to a stable household income, a prestigious education, and an opportunity for advancement in his youth giving him the opportunity to explore different realms. Compared to minority entrepreneurs, Zuckerberg has succeed far beyond a life’s worth of work. In comparison Patrick Soon-Shiong worked in his father’s store in South Africa and had grown up learning about traditional medicine through his father. Soon-Shiong had lots of hands on experience being a

Zuckerberg developed an interest in computers at an early age. When he was 12, he used Atari BASIC to create a messaging program he named "Zucknet." His father used the program in his dental office. He did this so that the receptionist could inform him of a new patient. The family also used Zucknet to communicate within the house. Together with his friends, he also created computer games just for

Mark Cuban is a self-made billionaire who has made his fortune by his innovating idea; online media. He was born in July 31, 1958 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, then he grew up in a middle-class family. His grandfather immigrated into the United States from Russia, and from there the Cuban’s family started to develop. Mark was always one step forward, and always saw a way to make money. At a young age, when he was twelve years old, he sold sets of garbage bags so he can buy the shoes he likes, and gave dance classes while he was at college so he could pay his tuition. Cuban has an excellent education history; he began his college education while he was in still in high school. He started his college education in Pittsburgh University in psychology,

When using these newly made electronics, the name Mark Zuckerberg is commonly known and brought up due to him being the man who co-founded the most ever used and first social media site known as Facebook. As explained in an online-biography of the creator by A&E Networks Television, that “after graduating from (Phillips Exeter Academy) in 2002, Zuckerberg enrolled at Harvard University. By his sophomore year at the ivy league institution, he had developed a reputation as the go-to software developer on campus” (. After creating 2 other websites that helped the Harvard community and when his reputation was officially created, Zuckerberg was approached by fellow students who needed his help on making a dating website for students across campus. In the middle of this process, Zuckerberg then abandoned this project and implemented a new idea that consisted of new people meeting each other and becoming friends via the internet. As explained in “Mark Zuckerberg Biography: Success Story of Facebook Founder and CEO” by Astrum Networks, by 2007, the “total value of Facebook reached $15 billion” (.

Mr. Bezos developed the Dream Institute, an educational summer camp that promoted creative thinking in young students, while he was still in high school (The Editors of Encyclopædia Britannica). After his graduation from Princeton University, Bezos worked for several different finance firms before deciding to leave his very secure job, as the youngest vice president of a very successful Wall Street firm, for a very risky move into e-commerce

After watching the movie The Social Network, the first thing I did was to search for Mark Zuckerberg’s real life experiences to see which parts are facts and which are fictions. As a matter of fact, this Harvard genius that founded the world’s first social network was not as childish as the movie portrayed. At least he didn’t write programming for getting into elite Harvard “Final Clubs” or for retaliating his girlfriend. During Mark’s high school, Microsoft and AOL tried to purchase the music player that he built and also invited him to join them. However, Mark decided to enroll in Harvard for further education. From where I stand, although the movie is fictional, it can easily

Zuckerberg strategy was doomed…because it included no systemic assault on poverty, the real enemy of achievement” (Russakoff, 2015).

Men are not created with the same mind-set nor the same motives as one another, but we all had the same thought of becoming a billionaire at age 20. The author mentions Mr. Zuckerberg as “a 26-year-old scruffily dressed Jewish kid who started a cultural revolution in his dorm room and inspired a movie that may just win an Oscar for best picture”(Rabin 482). Also another way he effectively appeals to the opposition by the opinion of other people, because no one in their right minds would guess a person who dresses in their pajamas in the middle of broad day could be the next 26-year-old billionaire. But that’s the flaws of judging a book by its cover. One can say that Mr. Zuckerberg had a clarity to be successful, there’s a saying in which goes for everyone who is striving to be successful “If you don’t help build your own dream, someone else would hire you to build theirs”.

One of the people I admire in the business industry is a seventeen-year-old, named Ben Pasternak. Pasternak at his young age is already the co-founder and CEO of the American technology and social media company Monkey Inc. which is designed to “Fill the loneliness void in teenagers.” as Pasternak would explain it. He is also well-known for designing the app “Impossible Rush” at the age of fourteen and for being the CEO of his very own company, “Flogg” (an application which allows you to easily buy and sell from your own social network) which he started at the age of

In 1758 in his financial advisory book The Way to Wealth, Benjamin Franklin is quoted to have said, "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest" ("An Investment in Knowledge Pays the Best Interest"). Ironically, and somewhat surprisingly, the wealthy, Boston-born inventor, statesman, politician, and writer (among numerous other professions) never completed schooling past the age of ten, as he was pulled from formal education at grammar school in 1716 to become an apprentice to his brother, a printer by trade ("Benjamin Franklin"). Even more astonishing is the fact that many of the self-made billionaires on the Forbes 400 list, like Mark Zuckerberg, never completed college or even set foot on a college campus. People on this list have gone on the create giants, like Microsoft (Bill Gates), DreamWorks SKG (David Geffen, who holds $5.5 billion in his name), and Carnival Cruises (Micky Arison) ("The Self-Made Billionaire Entrepreneurs Who Said No To College"). Perhaps education from college, high school, or another kind of formal education is not what it takes to become successful and massively well-off in the world.

Bill Gates has always been known for being one of the world’s most successful man. It is largely known that he, with Steve Ballmer, created Microsoft—both the software and the company. Microsoft is one of the world’s most popular computer software companies that was created by Gates and Ballmer in 1972—at least that’s when the idea was formed. But what many people don’t know or don’t realize is that fact that both Ballmer and Gates were college dropouts. They weren’t dropouts from just any college, though, but from Harvard University. Now, Gates often jokes about how he is, according to Crimson, “Harvard’s most successful dropout”. In his 2007 Harvard Commencement Address, Gates uses three key factors to make his speech a greatly memorable one. He used humor, seriousness, and motivation all in an adequate way that helped his speech be one for the books.

When William Henry Gates came into the world in the year 1955, the fledgling computer industry was still trying to spread its wings and fly. AOn the day he was born in 1955, fewer then 500 electronic computers had existed in the entire world, their total retail value amounted to less then $200 million, and the term Asoftware@ had not yet been coined.@(Manes, 2) Bill first laid a hand on a computer in 1968 while in junior high school. The computer business was rapidly transforming at this time, and so was Bill Gates. He saw the real profitable side of computers was not their hardware. Rather it was the software end of the business. Good software is what makes a computer exciting and easy to use. Bill Gates grabbed this concept and ran with it. The result: As of 1993 AGates was personally worth more than $2 billion@, and his company, Microsoft, was Avalued at more than $7 billion.@(Manes, 2)

Mark Zuckerberg did not have the routine high school experience. Unless, being recognized by Bill Gates for programing and offered millions is normal. During his high school years, Mark created a software called Synapse, a music player that is capable of identifying your musical preferences. Synapse was rated and reviewed rather positively in worldwide technology digests. After this program, Zuckerberg initially was recognized by Microsoft. Microsoft offered Zuckerberg a bountiful selection of jobs and even offered to buy his software. AOL tried to recruit Mark in order to gain possession of this software. Although, Zuckerberg denied these offers and the chance to be a millionaire and enrolled in Harvard University. He entered his college years with a reputation from Synapse, as a high school programing prodigy.
