If my daughter chooses to go into business, here's a role model for her

Model yourself after the #1s of the world who do it right and you won't go wrong:

"My priority is, always and forever, great storytelling," Sweeney says. "Strong, relevant characters married to a distribution strategy that allows us to stay connected to our consumers."

Colleagues describe her as somebody who doesn't micromanage; she hires smart leaders, then gives them clear goals, resources and support.

And don't micro-manage. That part is really important in life generally. I'm not good at avoiding that.  Smart delegation is key in successful leadership.
